Anxious Patients

Anxious Patients

If you are one of the thousands who suffer from dental anxiety, you are not alone! 

Your anxiety may stem from: bad dental experiences, problems getting numb, fear of shots or drills, fear of pain, advanced dental problems, concerns of sterilization standards, or any other apprehensions. 

Has it been 5, 10, or 20 years since your last dental visit?

No matter how paralyzing and hopeless it may seem or how long it has been, we can help you. At Sunnyvale Dental Care Office, we have successfully treated many patients with dental anxiety and helped them conquer their dental phobias.

When you come in for a consultation, you will find that Sunnyvale sedation dentist Dr. Gupta and our entire team are very warm and understanding. We will take the time to discuss your specific fears or concerns with you to make sure that they are all addressed. Together with you we will come up with the best plan tailored for your specific needs, concerns or requests. Before you leave you will have a good understanding of what sedation dentistry has to offer and if it is a good option for you.

ANXIOLYSIS FAQs 

Q: What is anxiolysis?

A: You are given a pill to help minimally sedate you during dental treatments. You breathe, swallow, and are in control, however, your fears and anxieties are significantly reduced. You feel a strong sense of relaxation, calm, and well-being.

Q: Who can benefit from sedation?

A: If you have such an intense fear or anxiety associated with dental visits that you cannot bring yourself to see the dentist to seek necessary care; if you can go to see the dentist, but each visit is very stressful for you and counseling or reasoning does not help; if your teeth are hard to get numb; or if you would like to get a large amount of dental work done in as few appointments as possible; anxiolysis can help you.

Q: Is it safe?

A: We use a small amount of very safe medication, which has been used by more than a million people a day as anti-anxiety or sleeping pills. As with any medication or medical procedures, there are risks for patients with certain medical procedures. We will help you determine whether or not you are a good candidate.

Q: For what types of appointments can I have anxiolysis?

A: The type of anxiolysis we provide can be used for any dental appointment such as fillings, crowns, root canal treatments, cosmetic work, whitening, or even cleanings.

Q: My phobia is so severe, will anxiolysis work for me?

A: For paralyzing phobias, anxiolysis is very helpful but you also need to be in gentle hands. A soothing environment coupled with a team committed to providing TLC are crucial. We have successfully helped even patients with severe debilitating fears and anxieties.
