Does the thought of having your teeth worked on make you anxious or uncomfortable? Do the sight of needles and the sound of dental drills make you cringe? Are you constantly skipping out on dental appointments for fear of pain or nerves? You needn’t worry anymore. Would you believe you could have everything done while you nap comfortably and awake to not remembering anything from the procedure? By the use of oral sedation, we can do this for you. In fact, we have been helping people overcome these fears for many years. Think you may have a dental fear or phobia, but can’t be sure? Here are a few of the more common symptoms experienced by patients:

• High dental anxiety and fear
• A severe gag reflex
• Difficulty getting numb
• Extensive treatment needs
• A desire to have dentistry done comfortably while they are fully relaxed

We understand that going to the dentist can be very difficult for some people. Dental phobia is actually a lot more common than you may think. It is estimated that about 15% of Americans avoid going to the dentist because of this reason. So, if you feel that you may have an issue that prevents you from keeping your dental appointments, talk to your dentist about these fears. There are lots of new developments in dental technology that can not only calm your nerves during a dental procedure, like local anesthesia and sedation dentistry, but also prepare you for your dental appointment with medications that will help to relax you. Your smile doesn’t need to suffer because you are scared of the dentist chair.
