The fear factor - more advice for nervous dental patients
What should I look for when looking for a dentist to help with my fear?
If it is a new dentist to you, meet them first. Ask the receptionist if you can see the new dentist just to say hello, to see if they give you a good vibe or feeling. The dentist has very little time to convince a patient that they are nice and caring and competent and have your best interests at heart. This is even harder for us if you nervous. We are human first, dentist second, if you just do not like the dentist as a person, you maybe need to look around a bit and find someone you 'gel' with better. It's horses for courses!
