From Anxiety to Assurance
If you’re somebody who experiences anxiety when thinking about the dentist, you’re not alone. This is a fairly common phenomenon known as dental anxiety, and it may occur in people of any age for a number of reasons. At Dentessence, we understand the thoughts and fears you may be experiencing, and it’s our aim to help you feel as comfortable as possible.
One of the main reasons people may have dental anxiety is because of bad dental experiences in the past. These negative experiences may have involved pain, discomfort, or feelings of being rushed or unheard. Our compassionate team is here to change that narrative and to prioritise your mental health as much as your oral health.
