Dentist for People with Dental Phobia

These days, dentists have effective treatments at their disposal for patients who suffer from a dental phobia.

Impacts of Dental Phobia

This is the vicious circle of dental phobia: whatever caused the phobia initially (be it painful or traumatic experiences, hurtful remarks, or something else) leads to avoidance, which in turn means no access to professional dental care, usually resulting in poorer oral health, and at some stage the results of this “neglect” are perceived to be so embarrassing that it’s totally impossible to see a dentist, even when in pain. If shame, embarrassment and guilt are keeping you away from seeing a dentist, you’ve got plenty of company!

We Understand Dental Phobia

First of all – it’s very likely that we have seen teeth as bad as or worse than yours.
We also understand why. We just want to take care of you and your teeth.

What May Have Changed

Dental techniques have improved so much over the last few years, that modern dental treatments can be completely painless.
Despite this, most people still feel a little nervous at the thought of going to the dentist.

If you have not been to see a dentist for some time, you will probably find that things have improved a lot since your last visit. The general attitude is likely to be more relaxed, the dental techniques and safety procedures will be much better, and the equipment will be more up to date.

For example, patients who are afraid of the dental drill can have treatments carried out by air abrasion. This is a quieter, less emotionally stressful approach.

Other techniques such as sedation with Nitrous Oxide ( otherwise known as happy gas ), general anesthetic, sedation and numbing gel are also available for patients with anxiety or pain phobias.
