Tips for Overcoming Your Fear of the Dentist



Does thinking about going to the dentist strike fear in your heart? Do you keep rescheduling your upcoming dental appointments? Not only is ignoring dental visits and routine checkups and cleanings bad for your oral health, it’s not necessary when you come to Krengel Dental! We have created an office where you can relax. One of our top priorities is to keep our patients relaxed and pain free. We make sure that you’re properly numbed and comfortable before a procedure.

If you’re still having fear of the dentist, here are some tips that can help:

Tip #1: Ask your dentist to explain what is going to occur during your visit. Dr. Krengel is always happy to answer any questions you may have!
Tip #2: Talk with your dentist about your past experiences and fears. Open communication is important.
Tip #2: Ask you dentist about tools or sedation option to help you relax and calm your nerves.
Tip #4: Complete dental work over multiple visits. Begin with just an exam to make you feel comfortable with your surroundings at Krengel Dental.
Tip #5: Bring a friend or family member with you to your dental appointment.
Tip #7: Listen to music to help relax.

We have computers and satellite radio in our rooms so that you can choose to listen to music or watch movies on headphones or aloud. We know that for some people a trip to the dentist can seem like the worst hour of the year and we strive to change that and be the dental office you look forward to.

Above all: Relax! Our service is fast, friendly, and gentle. We also welcome questions so please feel free to call or connect with us online.

  1. I sincerely hate the dentist! I feel like they don't really care about me, they just want to get me in and out and have me pay a lot. Maybe my dentist in Duluth MN just isn't cutting it anymore. Any suggestions for another one in my area?

  2. I have always had a fear of the dentist, but luckily, I just found a dentist in Edmonton who has helped me overcome this fear. It turns out the key to getting over it was just communicating with him. Having him tell me exactly what he was doing helped me understand better.

  4. Thanks for the post, and it makes me feel better knowing that I'm not the only one that has a fear of the dentist. Because I think the reason why I'm afraid of the dentist so much, is due to my parents instilling the fear of the dentist to me. Just great.
