Do You Feel Anxious About Visiting the Dentist?

You are not alone! In fact, it is estimated between 5, and 8% of adults avoid visiting their dentist because they feel anxiety or fear. Unfortunately, avoiding your regular dental check-ups and cleanings increases your risk of dental problems, including tooth decay and gum disease. The good news is that it is possible to overcome dental anxieties.

The first essential step is to acknowledge the problem and to try to determine why you feel this way. For example, some people feel fear because of a previous bad experience, or they are worried about being judged for the condition of their teeth.
