Hello,
Just the thought of having anything inserted into your cheek and acavity removed from your tooth is enough to bring fearto you and tears to your eyes. However, surprisingly it is not the actual dental procedure that most often terrifies patients.
According to surveys, the site of a needle and the sound of the drill werethe two most feared elements of dentistry. In any office they use the Painless Injection for years. It may seem strange, but visual stimuli, sounds and even memories can actually enhance pain. In fact, fear and anxiety related todental procedures very often complicates matters. It is comforting to know that just as the mind can trick you into interpreting sights and sounds as pain, so too can the mind be used to control pain. In my next articles, I will explore and explain the reasons behind the severity of dental discomfort and offer options for its control. If anyone have a question, just leave a comment.
