If you are holding off seeing the dentist in Stevenage because of fear or anxiety, here at Smilecraft in Stevenage<\/strong> Old Town, we can help you. We know that many adults experience dental phobia \u2013 around 30% in the UK \u2013 it\u2019s way more common than you might think and you are not alone.<\/p>\n

Whether you are concerned for your child or are anxious yourself, we have many ways to help our nervous patients and pride ourselves on offering the comfort and reassurance you need to sit easy in the dentist\u2019s chair.<\/p>\n

\"DentistYou are welcome<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our warm and friendly team have decades\u2019 worth of experience and enjoy putting patients at ease.<\/p>\n

Staying relaxed<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you are anxious about a particular treatment, we can offer conscious sedation. This isn\u2019t an alternative to anaesthetic. Sedation isn\u2019t a pain killer, it helps you to relax and stay calm during the treatment. You will be conscious but may not remember the procedure afterwards.<\/p>\n

Sedation can be taken either as a tablet before your treatment or administered intravenously through an injection.<\/p>\n

Easy does it<\/strong><\/p>\n

We use The Wand, which is a pain-free injection system. The Wand is a small, thin, pen-like device that we use to administer anaesthetic. It works at a low pressure; many of our patients aren\u2019t even aware that it\u2019s in use. We can be much more precise in targeting the area that needs numbing, which means little or no freezing of surrounding areas such as the lips.<\/p>\n

Clear and clean<\/strong><\/p>\n

We explain all our treatments in advance thoroughly, including timescale and cost, so you know exactly what will happen each step of the way.<\/p>\n
