Nervous Patients Cared For By Cambridge No 1 Dentist
Relaxed Dentistry For Our Nervous Cambridge Patients.
Our Experienced Dentists are very used to caring for nervous patients. In fact most patients are nervous and we try to cater for their particular problem. In most cases we are successful and maybe that why Cambridge Dental Hub is the largest Private Dental Practice in Cambridge
We realise that fears and phobias about visits to the dentist are many we have to and varied.
We encourage nervous and phobic patients to contact us beforehand, an email is fine, and let us know in advance of their first appointment. Please let us know if you are nervous, whether in general at every visit or just on a particular visit. Some patients are OK for everything except perhaps one thing. We really enjoy helping people get over their nervousness. We understand that all people are different and so are their anxieties. Some patient simply hate the smell or noise but for others it is far more complex.
Nervous Patients Enjoy Relaxed Dental Care
Your First Examination Appointment
We will start with making you comfortable and gaining your trust. Do not be afraid to ask questions.
Once you are with the dentist, explain what makes you anxious – different things affect different people, so talk to us. It is our aim to provide you with the best possible care.
If dental treatment is required, remember, explanation and clarification of any and all procedures proposed are part of the service.
It may help you to eat a light meal prior to your appointment. An empty stomach can increase anxiety, while a full stomach is more relaxing. tea, coffee, etc. should be avoided, as these are both stimulants.
In your initial discussions with the dentist, agree a stop signal to be used during treatment. This could be, for example, raising your left hand. This will allow you to retain complete control throughout the procedure.
Nervous Patients Can Float Away with Sedation
Let us Know the aspects of dental care that upset you.
Fear of the dental surgery has always been a major factor in keeping many patients requiring treatment away from the dentist. At our practice we provide the support of a caring and sympathetic clinical team in a relaxed, friendly environment in which your dental needs can be met with minimum anxiety or worry to you.
We have created an environment allowing us to break down many of the barriers which lead to the fear of attending the dentist. This includes a the opportunity for you to come in for a coffee and discuss any concerns you may have about your dental treatment.
Dental health is an important component of overall health, but dental phobia, dental anxiety, dental fear, and fear of needles or anaesthesia are major obstacles to receiving proper dental care.
Dental phobia is the serious, often paralysing, fear of seeking dental care. It is one of the reasons many people avoid visiting the dentist, and it can therefore have serious consequences for dental health and overall well-being.
