Find out what our patients say about Beechwood Dental in Bournemouth
Are you afraid of the dentist? Then you are not alone. Fear of the dentist is the main reason patients in the UK use for failing to keep up regular dental appointments. At Beechwood Dental in Bournemouth, Boscombe, we have helped many nervous patients to get the dental treatment they need.
There are many reasons why people say they fear or are nervous when visiting dentists. Some people have had a bad experience as a child, which has put them off seeking dental treatment for life. Others have triggers, such as the sound of the drill or the sight of a needle. The fear of not being in control is also common, along with shame about the condition of your teeth if you haven’t seen a dentist in many years.
Putting off dental treatment until an emergency arises can also add to nervous patients’ fear, as problems that could have been prevented with regular dental check-ups end up requiring more invasive treatment.
Sorinela, our dentist at Beechwood Dental has had many years of experience working with nervous patients, without the need for sedation. By taking the time to talk to patients about their concerns she has helped scores of patients get the treatment they need.
These are some of the reviews we have received:
‘Because as a once terrified person I am now happily attending for regular check-up’s and it’s all down to the people and the service. I am a true convert to dental health – thanks.’
