The 'Dreaded' Dentist


The 'Dreaded' Dentist. 

We always want you guys to feel relaxed when coming to the Dentist. That's why we have published a blog 'The 'Dreaded' Dentist' to offer you some advice. 

Fear of the dentist, or Odontophobia, is surprisingly common. In fact around 12% of the population suffer from severe dental anxiety — severe being defined as anxiety so serious it prevents them seeking dental treatments. Of the remainder a further 25% suffer from some form of anxiety before visiting the dentist — according to the British Dental Association.

As dental phobia is so common the good news is that a variety of techniques have been developed and tested that can help alleviate your fear of the dentist or remove it entirely. We will start by examining simple strategies and then move on to specialist and intensive treatment options and therapies.
