Is it normal to be anxious about going to the dentist?

You’re not alone in feeling nervous

At Kettering Dental & Implant Clinic, our team is here to help you if you feel anxious about having your dental treatment.

Feeling concerned or anxious about coming to the dentist is relatively common, and can affect people of all ages. In more acute cases, dental anxiety may prevent patients from seeing the dentist and having check-ups or necessary dental treatment.

What can you do to help?

Our approach to helping you feel comfortable

If you feel nervous or anxious about your dental treatment, let us know in advance. At Kettering Dental & Implant Clinic our friendly and understanding team takes your concerns seriously. You are always assured a warm welcome and complete confidentiality.

Our practice is a calm and relaxing environment and our aim is to make your dental experience as easy and comfortable as possible. The team always takes time to listen and understand your concerns by discussing your previous dental experiences. If you wish, your dentist will explain exactly what you can expect during your treatment.

Relax in our patient chairs during your treatment and watch your favourite Netflix series on our ceiling-mounted screens.

Positive dental experiences in our professional, calm and safe environment often make patients feel less anxious and concerned about their next visit.
