Help! I'm Afraid Of The Dentist

Afraid of the dentist? If the answer is yes, you are not alone. At Dennis J Coleman DDS – Family & Cosmetic Dentistry in Davidson, NC, we know what it’s like to treat patients who have a fear of the dentist. Our goal is to serve your general dentistry and cosmetic dentistry needs while earning your business as a lifelong client. Here are some of the many ways that we strive to provide a comfortable dental environment and fear-free zone:

1) We carefully explain what we discover in the initial dental examination and also thoroughly outline any your recommended treatment plan. The consultation also includes a discussion about pain management, such as oral conscious sedation. This allows you, the patient, to learn more about your oral health and what is necessary to keep your smile sparkling and healthy.

2) We don’t believe in rushing dental visits; we take our time to ensure that you are comfortable and satisfied. We know that every patient reacts to numbing agents and sedation medications differently, so for example at Dennis J Coleman DDS – Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, your dental treatment will not begin until you are fully numb. Whether you’re getting cosmetic dentistry or a root canal, if you start to feel any discomfort, just speak up and we will pause treatment. From there, we will administer an additional analgesic and wait until it takes effect. We focus on gentle, pain-free dentistry.

3) At Dennis J Coleman DDS – Family & Cosmetic Dentistry we use cutting edge and advanced technology that helps improve treatment and reduce the number of dental visits needed. Our services are more effective than ever before and in most cases we can help you achieve your dream smile within one or two visits.

Rest assured that at Dennis J Coleman DDS – Family & Cosmetic Dentistry we understand that a fear of the dentist is real and we will do all that we can to help ease your anxiety. Please call us today to schedule a consultation for family & cosmetic dentistry.
