Dental Treatments for Anxious Patients in Leeds

 At Rawdon Lights Dental Care, Leeds, we are experts in anxiety free dental treatment.

Are You Scared of the Dentist?

You're not alone - lots of people have a fear of dentists. Especially when you've not been to the dentist for a while it can become difficult to pick up the phone and book in an appointment. Sometimes not knowing what needs doing is the worst thing.​​ At Rawdon Lights Dental Care our dedicated team are here to help make your dental journey as easy and comfortable as possible.

​

Distraction is a really effective way of overcoming nervousness. For longer appointments we have virtual reality glasses, and if you bring along a DVD (a little old fashioned we know) you can choose what to watch whilst we complete your treatment.

​

We have had a lot of success in the past in treating patients who suffer from tremors such as those suffering from Parkinson's disease. Tremors tend to get worse when you concentrate on them, so our virtual reality glasses work well to combat this.

​

I spent 2 years completing a Master's Degree in the control of pain and anxiety with the aim of doing sedation. The upshot of this was that afterwards I didn’t need to sedate patients. This is a big advantage when you experience a dental emergency- it’s much easier to deal with.

 

We always explain your treatment so that you know what to expect, and are very happy to discuss any questions that you have to comfort you.

Our Quick Sleeper Technique

The Quick Sleeper technique allows us to perform painless anaesthesia with no lag time and no numbness.

 

The pen-like hand piece can target precise areas, so you won't have to sip soup through a straw because your whole mouth is numb after treatment, because with this technique your whole mouth will not be numbed at all, only the target area.

 

For more information on how Quick Sleeper works, call us up for a chat! You can also call us if you want to enquire about our anxiety reduction procedures. We offer cosmetic dentistry treatments as well as solutions for snoring, sleep apnoea and grinding.
