Are you afraid to see your dentist because you don’t want to face pain or the unknown diagnosis about your dental problems? Well, you’re not alone. Did you know that dentists can now do many procedures free of pain? With laughing gas (anesthesia), you can sit back and get all the dental care you need without feeling anything. All you need to do is tell your dentist your concerns and fears and discuss a plan that works best for you.
During the summers of 2015 to 2017, I had the privilege to shadow dentists. I noticed that children, and some adults, were afraid of the dental staff. By talking openly with your dentist about your fears, you’ll be surprised that you have many pain-free options to choose from!
The ultimate goal is for you to feel stress free so that you can get the proper dental care that you need.
