For some patients, a trip to the dentist can cause anxiety. At East Barnet Village Dental Practice, our compassionate team is equipped to handle any unease you may experience and to help make your visit as relaxed as possible.

We understand that dental treatment can be stressful for some of our patients, and that is why we never rush you. Our friendly dental team will take as much time as you need to discuss your options, making sure you fully understand and are happy with your treatment plan.

Most nervous patients have a genuine phobia for dental treatments, which is a valid disorder that we can manage using our unique approach toward dental treatment.

Because every patient is unique and important to us, we want to do our best to deliver a pleasant dental experience to everyone.

Should I tell my dentist that I’m nervous?

Absolutely. We recommend you mention your dental anxiety concerns to us at your first consultation, so we can explore our available options to help you manage your anxiety.

What can I do to be less anxious on my next visit?

• Arrive at your appointment early
• Wear a pair of headphones to listen to some music during your treatment
• Bring along a companion to provide moral support
• Plan your visits in a manner that is manageable for you

Please contact East Barnet Village Dental Practice on 020 8441 4213 with any anxiety concerns about your next visit.
