Dental Anxiety & Phobia: Experience Stress-Free Treatment
It's common to feel nervous about dental treatment, but for some, the fear is so strong it prevents them from getting the care they need. We understand these feelings and believe everyone deserves a healthy smile. Our practice is a safe, judgement-free zone where we specialize in helping anxious patients overcome their fears.
What May Be Causing Your Dental Phobia?
Dental phobia is a very real condition. It can stem from various sources, making it difficult to even consider a dental visit.
Past Negative Experiences
A previous painful or traumatic dental visit can create a lasting fear.
Fear of Pain or Needles
The thought of pain or injections is a common source of anxiety.
Feeling of Loss of Control
Lying in a dental chair can make some people feel helpless and vulnerable.
Embarrassment
Feeling ashamed of the condition of your teeth can make you avoid a check-up.
Our Solutions for Nervous Patients
We're dedicated to making your dental experience calm and comfortable. Our primary solution for patients with moderate to severe anxiety is Intravenous (IV) Sedation.
Intravenous (IV) Sedation
This highly effective method involves administering a sedative into a vein. It creates a state of deep relaxation, and while you remain conscious, you'll be largely unaware of the procedure and won't remember it afterward.
