Nervous patients
Whatever your negative dental experiences, with our help you can leave your fears where they belong: in the past. With refined care and expertise we’ve been helping patients throughout Caversham, Emmer Green and Reading manage their fear of the dentist for many years - we can do it for you too.
It’s important that you look after your oral health. Your lifestyle, psychological well-being and dental health depend on it. If you continue to avoid the dentist, this can lead to severe, perhaps irreversible, damage.
So, take the first step. Work with us. Tell us everything. In detail. We understand the panic. The sweaty palms. The rumbling tum. The unsteady legs. The tears. We also know how to ease these symptoms. As your confidence grows, they will disappear for good.
No pressure—you are in control
What does and doesn’t happen is up to you. You do not have to do anything out of your comfort zone.
Why not start with driving by Prospect Street Dental Practice. You don’t have to do any more than this for starters. We have a beautiful practice with a calm, friendly, family vibe, which you will discover if you come in and say hello. Why not bring a friend or a family member?
We are happy to chat
This is your chance to tell us why the dentist gives you the heebie-jeebies—we will understand. Sit down and have a cuppa or two on the house.
Our staff are happy to discuss your concerns. We are experienced in managing dental phobias. If this is enough, leave and have a think.
Meet the team—tour the premises
If you are ready for the next step, you can meet the Prospect Street Dental Practice team. All of us. Putting faces to names can help to break down barriers. As does understanding our systems and processes, our treatments and technology.
You get to know us. We get to know you. Have a guided tour of the building. Ask as many questions as you like.
Choose your dentist
Getting to know you means we get to play matchmaker. Partnering you with the dentist we feel is the most sympathetic to your personality and individual requirements. But, if you have a preference, we are happy to oblige!
Your first dental health assessment
Comfy chair, feet up, music in the background. We are happy to tailor the tunes to your taste. Or you can bring your own music and headphones and zone out to your favourites while we check your dental health. It doesn’t take long and is painless. We can stop at any time if you need a break.
Your first dental treatment
This can be as simple and pain-free as polishing your teeth or a sealant filling. You won’t feel a thing and will walk tall when we’ve finished. And don’t forget the music!
If you need a course of treatments, we plan these close together. This means you don’t have the time to fret and undo all the good work that has got you this far. Take the first step today…why not give us a call on 0118 947 2517 for a chat and to find out how we could help you.
