Dental fear affects billions of people all over the world. Ignoring dental problems only make the solutions more intensive. Root canal therapy is the next step for deep cavities.

Thanks to Sedation Dentistry, you will finally be able to relax with a dentist in Walla Walla that you’ll feel comfortable with.

Why Do People Fear the Dentist?

There are many reasons why people suffer from dental fear or dental phobia. People who have advanced dental phobia will wait until the last possible moment to go to the dentist, even if it means losing a tooth or two.

For some, being afraid of the dentist started from childhood after a traumatic experience in the dental chair. While for others, that fear stems from feeling claustrophobic because someone is lurking over you.  Some people dislike needles, while others remember mom and dad’s horror stories about their dental experiences only making their own fear that much worse. As a result, this is felt by your friends and family.

Because your fear affects your family’s feelings about dentistry it only makes their own feelings worse.

How Dental Fear Affects Your Family

Fear of the dentist is passed on from generation to generation. If you remember your grandfather’s stories about having his teeth pulled out without much anesthetic, it probably had a big impact on your dental fear. You are amplifying those fears and your own bad dental experiences when you talk about your fear.

You Can Conquer Your Fear of the Dentist

Offering three types of dental sedation solutions, Nxiolysis for anxiousness, moderate sedation where the patient is fully conscious and deep sedation or general anesthesia where you are unconscious. There is no memory of the proceedure. People who have problems with gagging and coughing find this type of anesthesia successful because they are relaxed.
