Like Sleeping Beauty&#8217;s parents afraid. I have to get a crown. I&#8217;m scared. I was talking to my sister-in-law. She said she used to be afraid until she went to your clinic. She mentioned you have some kind of secret way of giving shots that makes it painless. Will you please share your secret so I can tell my dentist?<\/p>\n<p>Oriana L. &#8211; Nebraska<\/p>\n<p>Oriana,<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m glad your sister-in-law had such a great experience. It&#8217;s important to us that we do the best for our patients. The secret is simple, but not easy. Find a dentist who cares about patients with dental anxiety.<\/p>\n<p>They all have different methods for helping fearful patients, but beyond the methodology is the heart. The dentist understands your fear and cares. They&#8217;ll work with you. Some use nitrous and &#8220;the wand&#8221;, like Dr. Swearingen. Others use oral conscious sedation. However, the key component is a caring dentist.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how I&#8217;d recommend you find that dentist. First, do an internet search for a &#8220;sedation dentist&#8221; or a &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.myoklahomacitydentist.com\/technology-comforts.html\">cater to cowards dentist<\/a>&#8220;. But, that&#8217;s not enough. The next thing I&#8217;d do is look up their reviews. See what people who&#8217;ve been in his or her chair have to say about their experience.<\/p>\n<p>This blog is brought to you by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.myoklahomacitydentist.com\">Dr. Don Swearingen<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am deathly afraid of needles.
