SEDATION DENTISTRY AND DENTAL ANXIETY

sedation dentistry
One of the most common comments heard in the dental office is,

“No offense doc, but I hate coming to the dentist!”

DENTAL ANXIETY IS VERY REAL, AND VERY COMMON!!

WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT:

  • If your dentist does not ask you about it, MENTION IT.
  • DISCUSS what you are nervous about, and what the dentist can do to reduce it. Below is a list of common sources of dental anxiety.
  • If your dentist is NOT WILLING to take the time to discuss your anxiety, you might want to reconsider your choice of dentists.
  • Consider NITROUS OXIDE

  • Consider ORAL SEDATION DENTISTRY

COMMON SOURCES OF DENTAL ANXIETY:

  • Fear of shots
  • Bad experiences as a child
  • Embarrassed about dental condition
  • Not knowing what is going to happen or what is going on
  • Fear of potential dollar costs
  • Not being able to stop the dentist
