Overcoming Dental Anxiety with Dental Fear and Anxiety Solutions

Do you suffer from dental anxiety? You are not alone. Dental phobia is one of the leading causes of why many people avoid dental check-ups. And the problem is that if you put your dental visits on hold, it’s a recipe for disaster—dental diseases are likely to come up. So, what’s next?

When you have dental anxiety, most dentists use laughing gas and anesthesia despite the risks associated with these options. Thankfully, if a dental phobia is hampering your oral hygiene, you can overcome dental fear and anxiety with NuCalm.

What is NuCalm?

It’s a revolutionary treatment designed by neuroscientists to help your body relax naturally (without drugs). This technology applies psychobiology and neuro-bioinformatics to mimic the process the body undergoes when it’s about to sleep—but without the use of narcotics. While NuCalm is used in dentistry, it’s also used for patients struggling with PTSD and those battling cancer.

At Dental Health and Wellness, we use NuCalm technology to improve our patients’ experience. This way, our patients achieve a relaxed mind without the side effects associated with other dental-anxiety inhibiting treatments. Simply put, NuCalm helps you achieve relaxation without a hangover!

How does NuCalm work? 

Now that you have been introduced to this state-of-the-art technology, it’s time to understand how it works. NuCalm administered by Dr. Chris Brady helps many patients overcome their dental fears and anxieties, helping even the most fearful patients reap the benefits of a dentist appointment. Here is what to expect from the procedure:

1. Chewable tablets composed of neurotransmitters are used to counteract your adrenaline.
2. An FDA-approved Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation (CES) device is attached to your ears.
3. With noise-dampening headphones, your dentist administers soothing music with proprietary neuroacoustic software to help calm your nerves.
4. Finally, your dentist uses black-out glasses to block out light to keep the patient’s visual stimulation at bay.

Dental clinics utilizing NuCalm treatment have reported increased positive patient experiences. Besides, this treatment makes dental treatment easy for the clinician, too. The patient undergoes a stress-free procedure, and the clinician works on a still, quiet patient, increasing efficiency.

Symptoms of dental fear

Visiting a dentist does so much than just transforming your smile. During a routine check-up, your dentist examines your mouth for issues like teeth decay, gum diseases, and other oral problems. That said, don’t give in to dental fear as it deters you from taking control of your oral health.

But how do I know I have dental fear? Here are the symptoms to watch out for:

• You experience sleep difficulties on the eve of the dentist appointment
• You are overly anxious in the waiting room
• You tense at the sight of dental equipment, including your doctor’s white lab coat
• You develop breathing difficulties when your doctor is examining your mouth
• You develop headaches, and your muscles stiffen while undergoing treatment

If you notice one or a combination of the above symptoms, contact Dental Health and Wellness for NuCalm treatment that helps you relax throughout your dental treatment.
