02
Feelings of worry or nervousness in the waiting room
03
Crying or feeling physically ill at the very thought of visiting the dentist
04
Physical symptoms such as sweating or shaking
By managing dental anxiety appropriately, we can ensure your treatment with us is comfortable, calm and stress free.
This will enable us to build a strong working relationship with you and your family that will leave you looking forward to your next appointment.
At our clinic, we utilise many tools to help provide our patients with a positive and comfortable dental experience.
Patient-clinician communication
We always listen to our patients’ questions and concerns, and ensure we understand these prior to commencing any treatment. If our patient is worried or nervous, we discuss ways to manage this prior to starting any treatment.
Pain management
In all of our dental treatment, we use techniques that ensure a completely pain-free procedure. This includes the use of specialised laser treatment if appropriate, which often means traditional dental injections are not needed.
Dental anaesthesia with navigation
“What can we do if the cavities in children’s teeth are very close to the nerve of the tooth, and they feel pain even with laser use?”
We use a computerized dental anaesthetic system in our clinic. This is designed to deliver pain-free dental injections and is known as the WAND (Computer controlled local anaesthesia) system. This is a state-of-art computerized anaesthetic system and ensures a higher degree of comfort than traditional dental injections. This is particularly useful on our needle-phobic and paediatric patients.
Therefore, high-quality, and successful dental treatments can be performed as desired. The tip used in the device is so thin that the children cannot feel it. In addition, the handpiece is in the form of a coloured pen, so it resembles a magic stick compared to the classical injection form, therefore preventing the formation of fear in paediatric patients, and increasing its acceptability. Therefore, the foundations of having a healthy mouth and teeth throughout their lives are laid successfully.
