Nervous Patients in London

Having a fear of the dentist is incredibly common, but can, unfortunately, lead to anxious patients avoiding essential dental health examinations and only booking an appointment when they are in pain or have a dental emergency. While we understand the anxiety, we don’t wish you to put your oral health at risk! When helping nervous patients, we do all we can to support you and make you feel as confident and comfortable as possible, before and during the treatment.

“What a difference you have made to my life. I have spent many years avoiding the dentist at all costs. But I can honestly say that your advice, treatment, professionalism and reassurance have transformed how I feel and look. I am so grateful to you and your marvellous team for making my smile so beautiful. You have given me a newfound confidence and I can’t thank you enough.”

 

How Our Dental Care Can Help

If necessary, you are welcome to come and take a look around our dental practice in Clapham Common at a date prior to your appointment. This will help nervous dental patients to become acquainted and comfortable with the practice environment. Many members of our lovely team have also been here for years, which means you are assured of a friendly, familiar face at every dental visit. Our appointments are never rushed, and any treatment is taken only at a speed you are comfortable with.

Reassuring Sedation Solutions From Our Friendly Team

If required, we also offer reassuring sedation solutions. IV sedation and oral sedation appointments are very safe and reliable methods of controlling dental anxiety and phobias. You will remain conscious throughout your appointment, but many patients do not remember much of the procedure or treatment that may have taken an hour or more! Patients often find that time passes very quickly for a positive experience during dental sedation.
