Causes of dental anxiety, and how we can help
Below are some common causes and reasons as to why people get dental anxiety. Us dentists can help you overcome them.
- Fear of pain: It's easier said than done to let the fear of pain put you off getting dental treatment. However, our dentists are here to help in any way they can to reduce pain by offering local anaesthetics.
- Previous experiences: We understand that people have had bad dental experiences, therefore putting them off ever going again. We don't want you to feel like this; we want to help you feel more relaxed when visiting the dentist.
- Phobia of needles: If you have a fear of needles, we would like you to speak to our dentists beforehand. We have equipment such as numbing gels to help lift the pain when getting an injection.
Dental Sedation
Dental Sedation is a type of treatment we offer at Dorking Smiles to help you feel more relaxed about receiving any dental treatment. Don’t worry; it’s not like general anaesthetics; you dont get put to sleep; it just allows you to feel relaxing with no pain. However, if you have sedation whilst getting your treatment, our dentist will ensure that you have completely recovered before letting you go home. We suggest that you don’t drive for 24 hours after sedation; therefore, prepare for someone to pick you up and drop you home. We also advise that you dont do any exercise for at least 24 hours.
Children's fear of the dentist
Children can develop a fear of the dentist even if you are a parent and feel nervous; you can portray it to your children. Therefore, it is important you do not show that you’re nervous because it can rub off onto their persona. Children feel more relaxed in an environment they feel safe in. Dorking Smiles is a safe and welcoming environment for all.
