When was the last time you visited the dentist? Sounds like a pretty simple question considering the American Dental Association recommends twice yearly dental checkups. But some people can’t remember the last time they saw their dentist. Why? Not necessarily because they’re too busy, but more likely because they fear the dentist. This fear and anxiety might be rooted in a less-than-pleasant childhood experience, the bothersome sounds and scary looking instruments in the office or even a feeling of claustrophobia as the dentist and assistant close in on you. Whatever your reason for not seeing the dentist, Dr. Holman and Dr. Frazier at Dental Expressions want to help you overcome that fear in order to receive the dental care you need and deserve. With oral conscious sedation dentistry in Oklahoma City, we can ease your anxiety even before you arrive at our office.
