How can I calm my nervousness before going to the dentist?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

You need not panic at all for a dental visit. All that happens in your first consultation is that the dentist checks your oral status with a mouth mirror and a hook-shaped instrument called explorer.

This is the point that most of the young people get scared of. The instruments are not going to hurt you but used to check the tooth on its various surfaces as it is a hard tissue. Once you are thoroughly checked, then if needed x-rays might be taken with complete protection. These days x-ray techniques have gone digital for saving time and to comfort patients. You just need to open your mouth, the x-ray sensor captures the tooth and the pictures will be seen on the computer screen in seconds.

The treatment options will be explained to you in detail and the procedures are done only with your consent. No dentist is going to prick you straight away with the needles. So please do not worry about it.

In case where you have to get a filling done, there is a rotary machine that sprays water that is used to drill the tooth and again this is super fast when you co-operate. If you are not liking that sound, feel free to put on your favorite music with the headphones during the treatment. Also, feel free with the dental team and ask all your doubts at once because the patient's comfort comes in front of all exquisite treatments. You will be fine.
