Managing Dental Anxiety: Tips for a Stress-Free Visit

March 8, 2024
dental anxiety, scared of the dentist, dentist in Overland Park

Does the very thought of a trip to the dentist make you break out in a cold sweat? Do you put off routine dental appointments to avoid the unease caused by a simple teeth cleaning? Dental anxiety is a common concern that many people face but, with the right strategies, you can have a stress-free experience. Here are some tips to help you feel more comfortable during your next visit.

Relaxing Amenities

Nothing exacerbates anxiety like bright lights, loud noises, and an uncomfortable environment. At Blue Valley Smiles, you won’t have to worry about any of these stressors. We strive to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere, complete with private treatment rooms, cozy pillows and blankets, and headphones so you can listen to music throughout your appointment.

Oraspa™ Therapeutic Treatment

Our office is pleased to offer Oraspa™, a holistic approach to oral health that combines traditional dental practices with therapeutic techniques such as aromatherapy, massage, and relaxation exercises to create a calming experience. Oraspa™ aims to address not only the physical aspects of dental health but also the emotional and mental well-being of our patients. With the aid of soothing essential oils and calming music, Oraspa™ leaves patients feeling refreshed, revitalized, and ready to embrace their oral health.
