Causes of dental anxiety, and how we can help
There are many reasons why people get dental anxiety. Here are some common causes and how we, as a dentist can help you overcome them.
- Fear of pain: It is easy to let the fear of pain rise in the back of your mind during treatment. Yet, our dentists will assist in any way they can to help reduce the pain, including offering local anaesthetics.
- Previous experiences: We know some of you may have had bad past experiences, yet we don't want that to change your future lifestyle towards the dentist. We can support you to feel more at peace when visiting the dentist.
- Phobia of needles: If you don't like needles, we encourage you to speak to our dentists before your appointment. We can use numbing gels to help decrease the pain when it comes to getting an injection.
Dental Sedation
Dental Sedation is a treatment we apply here at Dorking Smiles to help you feel more comfortable when getting dental treatment. It will not send you to sleep like a general anaesthetic. It will enable you to feel at ease, feeling no pain. If you have had sedation within your treatment, our dentists will make sure you are entirely recovered before letting you go. Nonetheless, we recommend that you do not drive for 24 hours after sedation, so prepare for someone to pick you up and drop you home; furthermore, we suggest avoiding exercise for 24 hours.
Children's fear of the dentist
Did you know children can also develop concerns and stress when it comes to the dentist? If you feel nervous about the dentist yourself, it is necessary to try not to show this fear to your child as it can influence how they think about the dentist. We have recognised that children feel more positive in an environment if they feel secure and the surroundings are familiar. Therefore, at Dorking Smiles, we want to make our dental care as warm and welcoming as possible.
