Nine to 20% stay away from the dentist due to anxiety or fear. So, if you get anxiety about dental visits or procedures, you are not alone.
Here at My Hills Dentist, we want to make your visit as pleasant as possible. Our goal is to ease you through your cleanings and appointments by talking you through treatments, offering top-notch services, and using sedation dentistry. Even better, our team does everything in our power to take care of our patients and make them feel secure.
We Use the Best Technology
When you visit our dental office, we use the highest quality technology in the market to ensure a quick and easy appointment. To relieve stress about what we are doing in your mouth, we use an intraoral camera to show you exactly what’s going on. We also use a soft-tissue laser to make your visits quicker and less painful.
If the metal drill scares you away from the dentist, rest assured. The team at My Hills Dentist uses air abrasion dentistry to clean teeth and remove decay without the sounds or feeling of a metal drill. We also use digital x-rays to reduce the amount of radiation received. With other technological advancements, we assure you that you are in good hands at My Hills Dentist.
Your Dental Team Wants to Help
Our team at My Hills Dentist wants to help. Whether you experience anxiety or dentist-related stress, we want to ease your conscience. We have an amazing team who always offers constant support and even more smiles.
When you come in, you will meet our administrative staff, dental hygienists, oral therapists, and our dentist. Every staff member understands that some people have anxiety when visiting their dentist. If you talk to us about your stressors and fears, we will help in any way possible.
Sedation Dentistry Might Be the Answer
Sedation dentistry is a new fad in the dental world. Though the name comes from sedate, it does not always mean putting someone to sleep. There are different levels of sedation dentistry for different procedures and types of anxiety.
Most often, our patients will take a pill an hour before their appointment so they become calm and relaxed yet conscious. Other patients need a bit more medication to take the edge off. In these cases, we prescribe a stronger pill with a groggy effect.
