I hate it too - just had a root canal and a wisdom tooth extraction and was shaking from fear. Just tell your dentist you are afraid and they should try calm you down: my dentist has amazing assistants who talk through whilst he's working to try keep you calm etc. Even though I know he won't hurt me I can't help but be scared. It's a totally irrational fear and you could be potentially making the sore tooth worse by no lt seeing the dentist.
Is it normal to be so scared of the dentist
