DENT-O-PHOBIA... Do YOU Have It?
from Maura Myles Hosted by Maura Myles
...And, how do you get rid of it? The fear of dentists can be serious; but it can be overcome, fairly simply. 1. Take the time to find a dentist you can trust - literally interview a few. They're usually happy to do it. 2. Let your dentist know you're anxious about the visit - this way, he or she will take steps to reassure you. 3. Visualize your scheduled procedure ahead of time. 4. Your dentist will calmly and methodically describe each step as it is accomplished - let that keep you feeling respected and reassured. 5. Let the dentist use an appropriate amount or kind of anaesthesia.
