Fear of dental treatment is a very common and distressing condition in both adults and children. It is often the result of a previous negative experience. People may neglect their oral health to the point where it seriously impacts their overall health and quality of life. Not anymore.
At Dazzling Smile Dental Clinic, we provide dental hypnosis, which is a fantastic way to help you get over your fears and anxieties. Your dentist acts as a facilitator to help you achieve a pleasant and relaxed state in which you can overcome your fear of dentistry. Unlike what is shown on TV and stage, you are fully aware and in control of yourself.
What Conditions Can Dental Hypnosis Treat?
Almost everyone can use hypnotherapy to some extent; most people can achieve some level of relaxation with hypnosis, which can become deeper and better with practice. A small percentage of us are highly susceptible to this trance state.
However, hypnosis has no effect on a small number of people. Our dentist can even assist children with this procedure. Children are excellent at using their imaginations, which can be greatly enhanced by relaxation and stories.
