Nervous Patients

At Complete Care Dental Clinic, we believe you deserve the best dental care possible, and that means making sure you feel calm and in control during every step of your treatment.

It’s very common to be worried or to have a phobia, about going to the dentist. So if you feel anxious about having dental treatment, rest assured you’re not alone. Everyone at our clinic is here to help and support you.

A fresh start

We ensure you have the best possible experience from the moment you step in the door. We have a welcoming, comfortable reception with magazines, cool fresh water, a calm atmosphere and a compassionate practice team, which will all help you feel relaxed.

Talk it through

Your dentist will speak with you ahead of your treatment to find out the cause of any worries, so that we can set your mind at rest. We will talk you through every step of your treatment, so you know what to expect and when – this can be very helpful in calming dental phobias and anxiety. Don’t worry, our teams are trained to spot and help anxious patients, and are used to moving at a speed that’s comfortable for you.

Helpful techniques

There are plenty of things you can do to help alleviate any anxieties you might have about dental treatment:

• Book a morning appointment, so you’re not worried about it all day
• Remember that your first appointment is only a consultation; you can talk everything through with your dentist ahead of treatment
• Bring a friend with you to your appointment for support
• Talk to family and friends about their positive experiences at the dentist
