Fear of needles is very common — especially in dental settings. The good news is, there are simple ways to manage this fear and make your experience much more comfortable.
Here are a few things that can help:
- Tell us ahead of time so we can support you throughout the visit
- Ask about numbing gel before any injection — it reduces sensation
- Use breathing techniques or distraction (like music or squeezing a stress ball)
- Consider sedation options, like nitrous oxide, if your anxiety is more severe
We’re here to help you feel safe, seen, and in control — every step of the way.
