Frequently Asked Questions About Relieving Dental Anxiety
Can you help with relieving dental anxiety?
Of course! The first step is sharing your anxious feelings and their possible causes, such as prior negative experiences at the dentist or past difficulties in getting numb for procedures. Once we know your issues, we can work with you on strategies to alleviate them. Many patients find relief by taking advantage of one of our methods of dental sedation: laughing gas or oral medication. We also have amenities that can help you relax, like blankets and neck pillows.
Are there steps I can take at home to relieve dental anxiety?
Yes, there are. We believe a comfortable dental experience begins before you ever reach our office. If you find yourself getting nervous beforehand, take a few slow, deep breaths, picturing yourself lying back comfortably in your dental chair. Then, when you're in our office, you can use this same technique for any residual anxiety you might feel.
Why is relieving dental anxiety important?
Fear of the dentist can be so severe that a patient will not come into the office for decades at a time. Because oral health affects overall health, this person is likely suffering in their mouth and other areas of their body. It's important that we find a solution to the fear so that every patient can remain healthy.
