Ner­vous about your trip to the dentist?

You’re not alone. Den­tal pho­bia is more com­mon than you might think and can affect peo­ple in many dif­fer­ent ways. From a mild dis­com­fort to com­plete avoid­ance of the den­tist, we know how dif­fi­cult this can be to man­age, par­tic­u­lar­ly when you have den­tal pain. To help get your oral health back on track and con­quer your fear of the den­tist, con­tact our friend­ly team today.

Bet­ter oral health

Don’t avoid the den­tist any longer.

Many peo­ple are scared of the den­tist, so the impor­tant thing to remem­ber is that you aren’t alone. It’s impor­tant not to let your fear of the den­tist stand in the way of your oral health. When you’re ready to over­come your den­tal pho­bia, we’ll be here to help you.

There are lots of steps we can take to make a trip to the dentist less scary for our patients. The first thing to remember is that procedures should never hurt. If you have had a painful procedure in the past, let us know so we can pay close attention to your local anaesthetic. Some people need more local anaesthetic to block the nerves, so we can work with you to find this balance.

Communicating with your dentist is one of the best ways to overcome your fear. Let them know what you are concerned about so they can adjust your treatment according to this information. For example, if you just want to know what is happening, our team can communicate throughout the treatment to let you know what to expect. But if you'd rather switch off and think about something else, you could wear headphones during the treatment to help you to relax.

  • I was made aware of this clinic by way of recommendation in the first instance. I required the services of this clinic and decided to make contact. From my initial query getting in touch with the clinic’s receptionist Kirsty, I was met with a friendly and informative staff team. This followed through the various processes with my doctor, Dr. Aryan Gharakhani and his team Roxana and Samiya who listened to me and explained very clearly what my options were and outlined my treatment plan. They allowed me time to process and inquire further to satisfy myself that I am confident with my plan. To be confident in this process is to impart your trust to your clinician and I am happy to say that Dr Gharakhani did a fantastic job and I am delighted with the results. If the need arose in the future, I would confidently use the services of this clinic and would highly recommend them to others if you or someone you know are looking to regain your beautiful smile. From my experience, you won’t find a more proficient and amiable team.
