Caring For Your Unique Needs
We want to care for you as a whole person. Please tell us if you have any of the following concerns – or others – that we need to be aware of. Please know that we value you as a person and will never judge you or make you feel uncomfortable or awkward about your condition or history. We’re here to help you move forward, not dwell on the past.
- I have a strong gag reflex.
- Lying in the dental chair makes me feel out of control.
- I am nervous that I’ll be judged because I have not visited a dentist in a long time.
- My main concern is pain control.
- My teeth are sensitive.
- The dental hook that probes for cavities makes me nervous.
- I don’t like the sounds of dental tools.
- Please don’t use cotton in my mouth.
- I don’t know much about dental care, so I need education and instruction.
- My time is very limited, so please don’t make me wait.
- Please tell me what to expect financially; I do not like surprises.
- I will forget what you tell me while I am in the dental chair.
- I have special health concerns (diabetes, medications, etc.).
