Overcoming Dental Avoidance

Your comfort is our greatest priority! We realize that sometimes people can feel nervous about going to the dentist or they may avoid dental appointments altogether. As your Washington DC dentist, it's part of our job to put your mind at ease before the appointment and take great care of you during the appointment.

If you are one of those people that tends to put off dental appointments, what is your reason?

Is it Cost Concerns?

Many individuals avoid going to the dentist simply because of the cost or because they have no dental insurance coverage. However, maintaining regular dental health doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Preventative care is your best defense against more expensive procedures that may be needed if small dental issues are allowed to become major dental problems through neglect. In terms of keeping dental costs down in the big picture, the sooner you visit SmileDesigner, the better!

Is it Dental Anxiety?
Some people feel nervous about going to a dentist, because they are afraid of possible pain. Other people may put off going to the dentist in the fear that they will need additional dental work. In other words, many of us would rather avoid and deny there is an issue instead of risk having to deal with the ramifications of a problem.

If you are one of the individuals who fears going to the dentist, a great way to work through your fear is talking to your dentist. Tell us your fears, and we will offer you practical solutions to help you overcome your feelings. At SmileDesigner, we have the latest in technology and training, including Drill-Free Dentistry, which helps us remove decay in its earliest stages without pain.

With any treatment plan, we will talk with you in advance, so that you understand your options and understand the process. Your comfort -- both physical and emotional -- is of the upmost importance to us!
