How Can I Deal With My Dental Phobia?

Dental anxiety and phobia can be a major problem for some people. However there are certain things that you can do to help reduce the anxiety.

1. Make your appointment first thing in the morning. That way you have less time to dwell on the visit and become nervous about it.

2. If you are anxious about not knowing what is going to happen then ask a team member.

3. Try deep breathing exercises. Slow deep breaths is a proven way to help reduces stress and anxiety.

4. Use your imagination. When in the dental chair think of a relaxing thing that you like doing. This could be pretending that your lying on a beach; or in a spa salon; going for a walk. When thinking of these activities really try to imagine the detail of your surroundings. This is a powerful distraction tool that really works.
