What Is Dental Anxiety and What Causes It?
Dental anxiety is a fear of going to the dentist, and it keeps people from seeking dental help, even when doing so could ruin their smile. Millions of people suffering from dental anxiety have had a bad past dental experience, usually a painful procedure.

3 Steps to Getting Past Your Dental Anxiety
Solving any problem is a process. Here is the process some of our patients have used to start improving their smiles.
Step #1 – Think about what caused your dental anxiety. Was is a painful appointment when you were a kid? Did your former dentist not listen to you when you said you felt something? Maybe your dentist made you feel ashamed about the condition of your teeth. Once you have discovered why you developed dental fear, you are ready to move to the next step.
Step #2 – The next step in your journey toward freedom from dental anxiety is to speak with someone about it. A perfect person to speak with is your Sierra Dental Care dentist. For 25 years, we have helped many people overcome the dental anxiety standing between them and the care they needed.
Tell your Sierra Dental Care dentist your concerns. They will be able to show you how things are done differently at our office. Some procedures may have changed dramatically since the last time you visited the dentist, while others have been replaced by new treatments that are more effective and cause little to no pain at all.
