Anxiety Management

(Management of nervous patients and dental phobias)

As a caring practice, we understand how, due to various reasons, some patients can be quite apprehensive about undertaking any form of dental treatment.

We will listen to your concerns, do a very brief and gentle examination, and then discuss your needs. No treatment (other than emergency) will be provided at the initial visit.

The recommended course of treatment will then be discussed with you fully, together with expected outcomes and financial implications.

For extremely anxious patients, inhalational sedation (laughing gas) or intravenous sedation (which acts like a good drink without the hangover!!) are both excellent and safe methods that help overcome anxiety.

Please do not hesitate to ask Lincolnshire Smile Clinic about our special programme designed to help nervous patients overcome any anxieties they may have about visiting the dentist.
