Overcoming Dental Fear, Anxiety or Phobia at Newbury Smile Makers
If you are nervous, anxious, phobic or simply afraid of the dentist, well done for getting this far !
People who have been too nervous to visit the dentist, may not realise how dental technology and pain relief techniques have improved. We have spent over 30 years successfully providing dental care to nearly 8000 nervous patients from our friendly, relaxed practice in Newbury; care which can result in life-changing and renewed self-confidence. I also teach other dentists how to treat nervous patient using R.A. Sedation, this is why they call me the R.A .Coach!
Dr Richard Charon is a Dental Phobia Certified Dentist Click Here to verify.
Unfortunately it's no use ignoring your concerns about going to the dentist, covering your eyes and pretending you don't need to look after your teeth may cost you in the long run.
Some of the techniques we use.
Syringes have been replaced with the Wand, a new pain-free anaesthetic system and Richard has a special expertise in sedation. 'Happy Air ' will clam and relax you and intravenous sedation is used for the most nervous of patients. Mark Harris, a local Newbury man says...
We also work with a hypnotherapist on the premises, when this would be beneficial.
We also have a dedicated website which talks only about Dental Sedation if you feel you need some more information. Please also take some time to visit the links at the top of this page which talk about the different aspects of Dental Sedation and practical ways to overcome your fear and anxiety of the dentist.
“Richard changed me from being virtually phobic to a relatively accepting patient. This started with an agreement that he'd simply look at my teeth without even prodding at them, moved onto discussions about how best to make me comfortable with the required work and then an implementation of that plan with me in control of whether or not work proceeded. I have nothing negative to say.
