Dental Anxiety Management

We appreciate that there is an innate fear or sometimes a certain level of shame when visiting the dentist. Skye Dentals role is to assist with dental anxiety management through understanding and support. If you delay visiting the dentist or dread the thought of undergoing simple dental procedures, this may be a form of dental anxiety. This is a fundamental obstacle that sometimes prevents maintaining good oral health.

How Can Skye Dental Assist With Dental Anxiety Management?

In light of modern dentistry, we have several tools that may help to assist with dental anxiety management. All treatments are explained fully prior to commencing. There are many minimally invasive treatments that can help to make your trip to the dentist a more pleasant experience. Nitrous oxide (gas dentistry) can also be used for both children and adults which may help make the dental experience more comfortable. When the treatment is over, the effects usually wear off within 5 minutes.

Step 1: Making The Appointment

At the first appointment, the dentist will not do any treatment if you requested. They can have a discussion about dental history and gain an understanding of the severity of the phobia. Speak to our staff, inform them of your dental anxieties/phobias. We understand that making it through that door is a big first step, and sometimes usually the hardest!
