If the idea of visiting the dentist almost sends you into a panic attack, then you’re not alone. Dental anxiety is very common and can affect people of any age.

But there's nothing to worry – this is manageable! Here are 10 tips that may help you conquer it.

1.) Talk openly to your dentist about your specific fears.

2.) Remember that many dental procedures are now relatively pain-free.

3.) Establish dental control through hand signals so your dentist knows when to stop.

4.) Distractions like musics, podcasts or videos can be very effective.

5.) Ask about medications that can help sedate or relax you during the procedure.

6.) Deep breathing during unpleasant moments can help you calm.

7.) Book an appointment in the morning to ensure you can relax for the rest of the day as your appointment will be over.

8.) Have a good breakfast to set you up for the day and ensure that your energy levels remain high.

9.) Bring a friend. Having a familiar face accompany you can be a great source of moral support.

10.) Find the right dentist that you trust and feel comfortable with.

With today’s modern sedation techniques and better understanding of the causes and solutions for dental anxiety, there is no reason to fear your dentist. Every dental professional wants their patients to feel calm and relaxed. The simple reason for their concern is that your comfort makes their job a whole lot easier! 🙌🏻
