We help you overcome your dental anxiety
Patients with dental anxiety have become much calmer and more confident after the first treatments at the clinic and are happy to return to us. If the patient suffers from severe dental anxiety, we are very keen to try to find special treatment approaches that can facilitate the treatment.
Our dentists in Malmö work calmly, methodically, and gently in a calm and pleasant environment. We provide continuous information about each step of the treatment. If you feel the slightest fear or anxiety during the treatment, we will pause and continue only when you feel calm and ready to proceed again.
We understand that sensitivity can vary from day to day. Our work aims to help you regardless of your dental care situation, but of course, as the patient, you always decide what should be done.
Treat dental anxiety with sedation
If, despite calming methods, you still feel fear or stress, we can also offer sedatives before the treatment. We use benzodiazepine (i.e., Dormicum), a medication that primarily reduces anxiety and relaxes the muscles. You will feel calmer but will not fall asleep. This is beneficial for patients who find it difficult to overcome their dental anxiety.
In some cases, patients are treated under general anaesthesia. This may be necessary, especially for treatments that the patient may experience as painful.
Under general anaesthesia, the body can cope with more phases that would normally not pose any problem for a healthy person. However, there may be risks associated with general anaesthesia, which must be taken into account.
At TandCity, we primarily recommend sedatives instead of general anaesthesia.
It is important to us that you feel calm and at ease with us so that we can provide you with the very best treatment.
