Your Chicago Family Dentist – Windy City Family Dental
Many people dislike going to the dentist, no matter their age, and have an unresolved fear regarding dental work. Even patients who have healthy teeth and only require commonplace treatments such as cleanings and X-Rays can get nervous about visiting the dentist. The reason for this fear is usually because the patient had a bad experience previously.
For children, visiting the dentist can be frightening for different but equally understandable reasons. These might include general anxiety over new experiences, not comprehending why their teeth are important and why they need a “tooth doctor,” or due to hearing unnerving words and terms such as “needle” or “drill.” After all, no one wants to think about a needle going anywhere near their mouth.
Fully understanding what a dentist does and why taking care of your teeth is important can help alleviate some of this general anxiety. For kids, being able to ask questions and receive simple answers goes a long way in reducing their fear.
Also, for parents, making sure to calmly explain to your child what a dentist does and what their first dentist appointment will include can help make kids feel more at ease, and even excited, to visit the dentist.
