I avoided the dentist for years because of my reaction to all that stuff they do. I finally got over myself and went, and I use a visualization almost every time. I picture our beloved dachshund, Schatzi, through her entire life cycle. I take it back to little dachshund egg is fertilized and cells begin to multiply if I need to! (For a root canal, for example). I see her with her little brothers and sisters and her mom, I remember when we brought her home...etc. She lived 19 years, and I have a vivid imagination, so it's never failed me.

I'm going there to get my teeth cleaned today. Now I do that every 6 months, like a good do-bee. Hey, if I avoid another root canal this way, it's more than worth it!
