There is no silver bullet for easing fears, anxiety, apprehension, or severe phobia associated with visiting the dentist’s office. The Pleasant Dental® team “gets you.” We appreciate and empathize. Our team in Dolton, Illinois, is also proud to say that we have created a warm, non-judgmental, inviting, and trusted environment that encourages open communication with patients.
Since anxieties and fears come in so many different forms of varying intensity, it is crucial for us to understand things like personal “triggers.” What can we do to help you, to get you feeling comfortable and less anxious, and back to visiting the dentist for the care you need to be happy and healthy?
To remain true to our name, our kind and caring professionals do everything they can to ensure as comfortable of an experience as possible. We are a patient, genuinely caring, judgment-free “zone”! Regardless of your situation, needs, or how long it’s been since you’ve seen a dentist, this approach to care helps all patients by instilling trust and easing fears.
Our patients feel comfortable enough with us to share what makes them nervous, anxious, apprehensive, or fearful about visits. Then, we account for what they tell us when providing services and treatments. Again, every patient is unique and has different needs. So, these approaches can vary considerably from person to person and largely depend on factors such as the individual’s experiences with dentistry and their “triggers.” Knowing these things, we can work to avoid or minimize these sources of concern.
