Thanks for using Health Care Magic.

Read your query.

Dental procedures are specialized procedures which are to be carried out only by dental professional.Attempting to do these procedure can harm you in many ways and is totally not to be done.

I would advice you to seek medical help for your depressed moods in emergency before you hurt yourself more.

Relax and visit the doctor immediately as being terrified of the dentist/doctor is no solution to any condition.

Hope this was useful.

Thanks and regards.
