The Truth Behind What Makes A Truly Gentle Dentist

Do you get sweaty palms and knots in your stomach at the mere thought of even making a dental appointment? If so, you’re not alone. Dental anxiety is a surprisingly common phenomenon. The good news, however, is that caring, gentle dentists DO exist so don’t give up on your oral health just yet. As an experienced, gentle dentist, Robert Duhig knows that dental anxiety is not unusual and greets each patient with a friendly, empathetic ear, helping them to go into their appointment with confidence. If you’re riddled with dental anxiety, contact Robert Duhig Dental to learn how their extremely gentle practices can get you back on the road to a happy, healthy smile.  A gentle dentist will put you at ease from the first point of contact  For some people, dental anxiety can result in going to great lengths to avoid visiting the dentist altogether. However, an experienced dental practice will know how to make people feel at ease from the minute they book an appointment or walk through the front door.  Staff are trained to be empathetic and calming and they will talk you through each step of the process before your appointment even starts. In fact, Robert Duhig understands that in certain cases, patients may feel more comfortable taking their own pain killers or anti-anxiety medication before coming in for their appointment. However, it is very important that you call the office to get the right advice before taking anything prior to your dental visit. Communication is the key to making patients feel calm and confident  With over 30 years of experience, Robert Duhig prides himself on knowing how to calm the minds of anxious patients and consistently checks in with them to see how they are feeling throughout each appointment.
