Dental fear: People are anxious about going to the dentist for different reasons, cross infection, pain, money, etc. Share your fears. If you're stressed or anxious, tell your dentist and the dental staff. Explaining your concerns will let your dentist adapt the proper sedation, anesthesia and treatment to your needs.
