Dental Anxiety at Neo Dental 

Nobody particularly enjoys going to the dentist, however for some, dental anxiety is a genuine threat to their overall well-being while surrounded by the walls of a dental environment. Many have a fear of objects being inserted into their mouth, such as drills, while a number of people have a phobia of needles. These fears can cause great concern for a number of patients and make it increasingly difficult for the dentist to conduct their assessments or operations. However nowadays, patients are offered a number of relief systems which are proven to be beneficial when undergoing dental surgery.
