Dentist for
anxiety patients

Some people become nervous when they think about their next visit to the dentist or suffer from anxiety. They are not alone in this, because every second Swiss person says they are afraid of the dentist. This often manifests itself in sweats, sleeplessness or panic attacks. Most of the time, this fear means that the next appointment with the dentist is delayed, which unfortunately also affects the dental health of the patient concerned and often leads to chronic complaints.

So expresses fear of dentist

A pronounced fear of dentists in patients manifests itself through both psychological and physical symptoms. The signs on a psychological level are, in particular, inner restlessness and nervousness when an upcoming dentist appointment is approaching. The person concerned usually thinks of the upcoming appointment continuously, in addition nightmares and insomnia can occur at night. It is not uncommon for the upcoming appointment at the dentist to be canceled or postponed at short notice for vain reasons. Physical symptoms are manifested, among other things, by increased sweating, an increased pulse and stomach and intestinal complaints.

Dentist for anxiety patients in Oldenburg

Are you afraid of the dentist? Do not worry! You are not alone in your fear. Many patients fear visiting the dentist. This is mostly based on negative experiences that a dental patient has often had in childhood. The fear of the dentist often leads to a severe impairment of the quality of life, because missing dental treatment can have serious consequences, such as B. carious, dead teeth, tooth gaps, pain, inflammation and abscesses. Often there are mental impairments such as avoidance of intimate contacts, abuse of painkillers, social isolation, depression.

Gentle treatment especially for dentist fear / dentist phobia

The real fear of dentists – a taboo subject with bitter consequences

With real fear of dentists you still come across many prejudices today. To date, no celebrity has dared to go public with it. Most of the time, neither the family nor friends or acquaintances know about it. Stigmatization and the psychosocial effects usually put real fear of dentists under greater stress than bad teeth themselves. Further information

Dr. Michael Leu has developed a treatment technique that has proven itself many times over for real dentist anxiety patients: 3TermineTherapie. After the third appointment, the patients are usually refurbished and can now go to the normal dentist fear specialist "around the corner". We have been treating true dental anxiety patients across Europe using this method for almost 20 years. In the meantime, there are more than 4,000 successfully treated people.

What is dental phobia?

The thought of the upcoming visit to the dentist gives many people a queasy feeling. In some patients, there are also wet hands, panicky fear or even a circulatory collapse. Like about a quarter of all Germans, these people suffer from so-called dental phobia.

The fear often affects those affected so much that visits to the dentist, especially in the event of complaints, are completely avoided. As a result, dental health often suffers from enormous fear for years.

How can we help anxiety patients?

Those affected by a dentist phobia need a particularly sensitive approach by the dentist and his team. At Dr. We always try to relieve Popovici and Schulz of this fear and do everything we can to provide you with stress-free and pain-free treatment.
