At TranZenDental, we wholeheartedly understand the anxiety associated with being in a dental chair.
Having someone exploring our mouth with ten fingers and a pair of eyes with a magnifying loop is definitely not something that we want to sign up for. Our body is very personal and very intimate to us. Opening our mouth and saying, "aaaaah!," is a total invasion of our privacy.
When we sit in that dreaded dentist chair and open our mouth, we become very vulnerable. We don't feel we are in charge. We can overwhelmingly feel that we are losing control. Our heartbeat rises. A drip of sweat runs along our back. Our muscles tense up.
The fear of coming to the dentist and the anticipation of pain is very real to a lot of our patients. Fear of dentistry has either been passed along to us by other loved ones who underwent a dental trauma, or you may actually have lived one yourself.
Due to lack of training, patience, and compassion, most dental teams are not equipped to deeply understand people's fears and apprehensions.
Assumption is not good enough. Knowing that a patient can literally be paralyzed by the sensation of fear is not enough.
Each member of our staff is individually trained to recognize, and gently assist with absolute genuine love and care for all patient's emotional, psychological and physical needs. Each and every one of us brings a specific set of skills that increasingly helps the relaxation of each patient.
Some of our patients who used to have a dental phobia, have completely transformed their attitude to a more relaxed, more confident, and at ease state giving them the courage and pleasure to come back to our office over and over again. Aside from seeing the changes in people with their new smile, seeing a patient emotionally healed and be free of dental anxiety is probably what we collectively celebrate the most in our office.
Believe it or not, one of the best ways to overcome your apprehensions with a dental office is to visit the facility and meet all the team members. Our ambiance and atmosphere will drift you away to that calm, comfortable and relaxed state. Having a heart to heart conversation with Dr. Leconte will automatically appease you.
This is an absolutely no shaming, no justification needed, and zero judgement facility.
Dr. Leconte offers different natural techniques to overcome a wide range of dental anxiety and phobia. Natural methodologies such as specific breathing techniques, meditation, visualization, aromatherapy, musical therapy, acupressure touch therapy, and herbal elixirs can absolutely calm all the brain cells that are firing all cylinders due to apprehensions.
If the natural ways are not enough for the most discerning patients, we offer a menu of artificial relaxation methodologies from nitrous, also known as laughing gas, to a specific combination of sedation "cocktails" that will most likely doze you away throughout your dental procedures.
An additional layer of fear and stress reduction is how the dentistry is actually performed. You will not feel any needles here. You will not need to be anesthetized multiple times. The dreading sound of the drill is a thing of the past. Our state-of-the-art facility is a great asset to make all visits a pleasant and effective experience.
Whatever anxiety reduction doorway you choose to open, it is all provided to you in an atmosphere that is nurturing and supporting.
Enveloping you with the sense of peace, genuine care, safety, and expertise will give you the inspiration to transcend all dental fears and this is where true healing starts to happen.
You can absolutely kiss your dental fears goodbye.
But don't take our word for it...
