Dental Anxiety | We Can Help

 Does the thought of sitting in a dental chair make you nervous? If so, you’re not alone. Dental anxiety affects millions of people, preventing them from getting the care they need to maintain a healthy smile. At LADD Dental Group, we understand these concerns and are dedicated to making every visit as comfortable and stress-free as possible.

Understanding Dental Anxiety

Dental anxiety can stem from various factors, including fear of pain, past traumatic experiences, or even the sounds and smells of a dental office. Unfortunately, avoiding the dentist due to anxiety can lead to serious oral health problems, making future visits even more daunting.

2. Advanced Technology for a Comfortable Experience

We utilize state-of-the-art dental technology, such as Overjet AI, to provide precise, minimally invasive treatments. This allows us to diagnose issues earlier and perform procedures with greater accuracy and less discomfort.

3. Sedation Dentistry Options

For patients with severe anxiety, we offer various sedation options, including nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and oral sedation, to help you relax during your visit.

4. Comfort-Focused Amenities

We provide a relaxing environment with cozy blankets, and soothing video/music to help you feel at ease during your appointment.
