Welcome, Nervous Patient!
“They won’t have seen a mouth as bad as mine”
“I’m so scared it will hurt”
“I’m worried I’ll be sick in front of people”
I understand how difficult it is for you to have clicked on this page and gotten this far.
Well done!
Dental anxiety and dental phobia are no laughing matter. They holds thousands of people back from their dreams of having a nice smile, of being able to laugh without raising their hand to hide their mouth, or of living a life free of pain.
Or maybe, you are here because you can normally cope ok at the dentist, but are being held back from that bit of treatment you really want, because of your worries.
This is where sedation can help you.
Care from an experienced dental sedationist during your treatment can take away all your worries, and give you anxiety free dentistry. You can drift away, safe and warm, calm and relaxed.
Sedation usually gives you amnesia, so you can’t remember a thing afterwards!
At the bottom of this page you will find two pink links for downloads that will give you more information about dental sedation, if you need to know more at this stage. I hope you find it useful. If you have come to this page as we have an appointment booked then it is essential reading.
If you already have a regular dentist, please get in touch with me and I can discuss your care with them on your behalf. As a team we can find a way forward.
If you don’t have a dentist, get in touch too! I can help you find the right person to treat you and together we can help you to be free of the worries holding you back.

““I remember Jess saying that she was starting the sedation and me saying I was feeling a bit woozy, and someone touching my gum and a small prick (possibly an injection?). Then nothing until a vague memory of being helped out of the chair and taken out to the car. My husband tells me I took part in a conversation as we did that, about a subsequent appointment and my birthday but I don’t remember that.””
