Here are some tips on how you can cut down your dental anxiety:
*Share your anxiety. If you're tense or anxious, tell your dentist and staff. Getting your concerns out in the open will let your dentist adapt the treatment to your needs.
*Choose a time for your dental visit when you're less likely to be rushed or under pressure.
*If the sound of the drill bothers you, bring headphones so you can listen to your favorite music.
