Dear practo user,
It is sad to hear about your problem, however, there are options available to make your experience comfortable such as palatal anesthesia( numbing your palate)or managing anxiety with drugs such as diazepam( you must give it a try).Please consider extraction as the last option.

Please don't go for extraction. Please request your dentist to numb the palatine tissue. It will work
