Do you fear going to the Dentist and therefore has not gone in years?
If you answered yes,
don't feel insecure.
Studies have shown that seventy five percent of US Adults fear going
to the Dentist.
People's fears typically come from one of the following:
the unknown; lack of control
the dental equipment; loud noises and dentist office; or even just lying in the chair.
Doctor thomas Nyvold, a Dentist in Lakewood Colorado for over twenty five
years, at TEN Family Dentistry.
gently states that his philosophy is to communicate with educate his patients
as much as possible.
The goal is to have patients feel like they have a sense of control. He says
his philosophy is to calmly explain what patient will soon feel, and
for about how long.
With that said, some people are still going to have trouble visiting the dentist.
If that is the case, he also encourages patients to bring in things that may make them
feel more comfortable.
Things like music on an mp3 player, stress balls, or even doing
relaxation exercises before, or while they're in the dentist's chair.
In the end, Dr. Nyvold and his team feel that many of the fears that patients have
do not come true.
While you may not like going to the dentist, you should realize that your
dental health actually effects your overall health.
This alone is a reason to visit the Dentist at least twice a year for check ups.
