Do you feel a knot in your stomach at the mere thought of visiting the dentist? You’re not alone. Dental anxiety affects millions of people worldwide, causing them to postpone or avoid essential dental care.
However, neglecting your oral health can lead to more significant problems down the road. So, how can you overcome dental anxiety and ensure a stress-free visit to the dentist? Let’s explore some helpful tips:
Talk to us, share your previous experiences with us
At Renew Dental Lounge, we’ve created a safe, calm, and relaxing environment to help every patient feel at ease. Don’t be scared or ashamed—your oral health journey starts here, in a judgment-free space designed just for you.
Happy gas and IV sedation
We support nervous patients, offering options such as happy gas and IV sedation to ensure your comfort. Happy gas is available any time you want it. IV sedation can be pre-booked with our visiting Anaesthetist.
Relax and watch Netflix during your dental visit
At Renew Dental Lounge, we believe that dental visits should be as comfortable and stress-free as possible. That’s why we’ve equipped our treatment rooms with ceiling-mounted TVs so you can enjoy your favorite Netflix shows or movies while we take care of your smile.
For those who feel anxious about dental treatments, watching Netflix is a fantastic way to focus on something enjoyable instead of the procedure. It’s our way of making sure you feel calm, relaxed, and at ease.
Take a moment before your visit to think about what you’d like to watch, and let us know when you arrive.
Start Small
If the idea of a full dental appointment feels overwhelming, consider starting with a simple visit to meet us & familiarise yourself with our practice. You don’t even need to go into the dental room – we have a separate, private office where you can discuss your concerns without feeling the dread of being in the dental chair. Gradually exposing yourself to dental environments can help desensitise your anxiety over time.
Bring a Support Person
Having a trusted friend or family member accompany you to your dental appointment can provide much-needed emotional support. Their presence can help you feel more at ease and less alone during the visit.
