Nervous

If visiting the dentist is right at the bottom of your "to do" list, or maybe not even on it, here are some hints to help:

  1. Make time to meet our friendly dentist.  She doesn't bite!
  2. Talk through your concerns.  Many adults suffer stress when considering attending dental appointments.  Bad experiences in the past can really impact on how you feel.  You are NOT alone.  So, talk it through.
  3. Sedative options - there are options to help you relax before you attend the surgery.  Discuss them with our helpful staff.  
  4. Take a tour - we are happy to show patients where they're going to be spending time.  We'll even explain the scary-looking instruments, so you understand what's going on.
