Many of us can relate to feeling a sense of anxiety when thinking about visiting the dentist, which is commonly known as dental phobia. Often, dental phobia is caused by a negative experience and thoughts of extreme pain following dental treatments.
The mouth is viewed as a personal area and can be thought of as an invasion of personal space for many patients visiting a dental clinic for treatments. For some, this can feel like the loss of their own control.
There are many people who would rather endure intense pain and delay visiting a professional dental clinic until the pain becomes unbearable. The reality is, the longer you delay your dental treatments and procedures, the more damaged your teeth will become.
If you’re wondering what helps with dental anxiety, you may like to consider opting for painless dentistry which can help make your dental treatments as comfortable as possible. Dentistry really has come a long way over recent years, and there are many dental procedures that are relatively painless. As a private dentist in Essex, we are proud to be using painless dentistry to relax patients and make their dental visits a positive experience.
Painless Dentistry
Over the years, our award-winning dentists have served many patients who would never dream of visiting a dentist even if they were suffering from extreme dental pain.
We make sure that all of our cosmetic dentists, general dentists and hygienists handle every patient with care, compassion and understanding, whilst delivering a pain-free dental treatment so that patients have no need to feat when receiving their treatment. Using our extensive experience in dentistry and our investment in medical technology, we offer painless dentistry which is second to none.
With painless dental treatments held as one of our core values, we are proud to have a wide range of dental patients not just Essex, but throughout the UK and beyond, who trust us to take care of their oral health and continue to use Perfect Smile Spa for their dentistry needs.
Unlike other dental clinics, we take our time to make sure every care is taken to make you feel comfortable and provide a positive dental experience that will help you defeat your dental anxiety.
Dental Sedation
If you suffer from dental phobia, we are able to offer IV dental sedation as a means of relaxing you during your dental procedure. Using IV sedation also makes it much easier and straight-forward if you require multiple dental procedures in one appointment. Rather than returning to our dental clinic for each procedure and spreading out your appointments, painless dentistry allows you to have these painless treatments in one simple visit.
IV (Intravenous) sedation is a safe and trusted technique to put you into a tranquil state of mind. Unlike general anaesthesia, you won’t be put to sleep, but you are likely to have very little memory of the treatment once it is complete.
We have treated hundreds of very nervous patients who have used dental sedation during every treatment, however, many of our patients have stopped using sedation due to all treatments being completely pain-free. In fact, these patients now enjoy visiting Perfect Smile Spa for their dental procedures!
Please note that dental sedation is optional and you do have the choice. Our treatments are entirely pain-free, so many nervous patients find that dental sedation isn’t necessary for some dental treatments.
Whilst root canal treatments (also known as endodontics) are typically dreaded by many patients, our aim is to remove the fear associated with this treatment and make the procedure precise, quick, smooth and pain-free, in as little as one session.
Enjoy Spa Treatments
Our main aim is to offer exceptional treatment in the most relaxable setting possible, with our 7-star service. With total comfort in mind, we aspire to be a painless dental clinic that our patients love to visit.
When visiting our dental clinic, you can alleviate any stress or anxiety while enjoying our luxury spa treatments in a completely relaxed environment. We offer you music, films and any refreshments of your choice during your dental treatments. If you’re feeling tense, you can even relax in our soothing and stress-reducing massage chairs prior to your appointment. We also have a cosmetic therapist who works with us who does many facial and body treatments.
A Pleasant Dental Experience With Perfect Smile Spa
We pride ourselves by giving our patients the most pleasant dental experience to enable them to overcome any fears and maintain their teeth for the rest of their lives.
From your initial appointment, through to the completion of your treatment and any check-ups along the way, we will guide and support you. We also like our customers to feel comfortable with telling us how they are feeling. A problem shared is a problem halved, so don’t be afraid to make your anxiety known and request for dental sedation if you feel it will make your treatment more comfortable.
If you do require emergency dental treatment, cosmetic dental treatments, orthodontics, facial rejuvenation or general dental treatment in Essex, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us or call us on 01708 442 114.
