This phobia negatively affects oral health since, out of fear, the patient does not go for a review with his dentist and oral pathologies may appear or worsen.
\nFor people who suffer from this phobia, a simple dental cleaning or check-up involves a high level of stress and anxiety, which is why they tend to put it off too long. This postponement of visits to the dentist is one of the main causes of the appearance of diseases such as tooth decay or gum disease.
\nSedation in dentistry is a technique that facilitates the relaxation of the patient and allows treatments to be performed more comfortably and effectively. It is indicated for people with fear or the dentist or who feel a high level of stress when they have to visit a dental office.” font_size=”lg:18″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][tm_spacer
