We hear this everyday. A patient will walk in to make an appointment and tell reception they haven't been to the dentist in x-number of years because they're so scared. Sometimes they'll even be shaking as they tell us the horrible experiences they had as a child, or the terrible pain their parents went through.
But There's Good News! A Trip To The Dentist Is Very Different These Days!
No More Tools Of Torture
The instruments we use these days are a lot less scary and less painful. The dentist is no longer a sadist out to get you. They're friendly and easy to talk to. The dentist wants to get you out of pain, not give you any!
No More Laughing Gas
Rather than use gas we have local anaesthetic injections that completely numb the area for treatments done in the chair, and if you're in need of getting your wisdom teeth removed, we can do that under general anaesthetic so you sleep through the whole procedure.
No More Metal Fillings
You won't hear the words "Nurse, please mix the amalgam" in either of our dental surgeries. Our dentists opt for composite fillings which are the same colour as your teeth, making them invisible instead of very obvious. Also, no mercury! so you don't need to worry about mercury poisoning anymore. We can even replace your old metal fillings with the new composite ones.
No More Pulling Teeth For No Reason
It may shock some of you to know that many years ago, teeth would be extracted with very little reason. Today, we try to save the tooth with every means possible before we'll even consider pulling it out.
All Our Staff Are Lovely And Genuinely Care About Your Oral Health
At A Plus Dental we believe that prevention is better than cure and will give you tips on keeping your teeth healthy so you don't need to have big treatments. As soon as you walk in the door you'll be greeted by either Fern, Shaun or Vani who will make you feel comfortable and calm. Once in the room, our friendly dentists and nurses will make sure you are comfortable and happy in the chair. The best way to get over your fear of the dentist is to come in and see one. We'll make you forget all about your bad previous experiences and replace the memories with positive ones.
