Afraid of Going to the Dentist? Discover The Cure for Dental Fears
Dentists generally have a bad reputation. Expressions such as “It’s like pulling teeth” and “I’d rather get a root canal” are proof that doing something painful and hard is often compared to going to the dentist. In fact, going to the dentist is shown as something to be endured, not enjoyed.
However, it doesn’t have to be that way at all – and we at Downtown Dental, your Downtown Vancouver dentist, certainly don’t believe going to the dentist is a terrifying ordeal for any of our patients.
Our oral health care experts do their very best to make your every experience at the dentist a memorable one – in a good way! We know why people dislike going to the dentist and we’ve worked to make our office, our staff and our technology into a perfect combination of excellent patient-focused care and excellent oral health care.
If you’re afraid of going to the dentist, we offer you several dental treatment options and we believe in honest, open communication between you, the patient and us, the oral health care professionals. Let us know when you’re uncomfortable and we’ll do everything we can to make you comfortable and relaxed.
If you’re afraid of pain, you might be pleasantly surprised to learn that current dental technology has made going to the dentist a virtually pain-free experience. Extractions, root canals and even routine cleanings are now the most efficient and stress-free possible.
If you’re worried you’ll be judged for your oral health care regime, we promise you’ll only get a better understanding of oral health care, not a scolding! We’re thrilled you’ve chosen our Vancouver dental clinic as your partner in your quest for a healthy, happy smile.
Contact your Downtown Vancouver dentist, Downtown Dental, and finally “feel like you’re on cloud 9” when you’re going to the dentist.

Here at Downtown Dental, we understand that our Vancouver dental patients may suffer from dental anxiety and therefore can be extremely reluctant to contact us and book an appointment. Research has identified the Top 3 anxiety-causing reasons about dental visits – and here’s what we’re doing to make your every visit to your Vancouver dentist Downtown Dental something to look forward to!
- Pain
Fear of pain is completely natural and the oral health care experts at Downtown Dental, your Vancouver dentist, understand that anxiety associated with needles and the idea of pain/discomfort in the mouth can convince patients they’re better off suffering from oral health care issues than coming to the dentist. However, we want to set the record straight. Most dental procedures are currently pain-free. If you require sedation and dislike needles, we’ll offer you alternative options or conceal the needle if necessary.
- Embarrassment
90% of patients in one recent study reported that embarrassment is the no. 1 reason why they don’t visit the dentist. If you’re worried that you’ve neglected your teeth and your oral health care, come in for an appointment and learn about your oral health care options at your Vancouver dentist, Downtown Dental. We’re here to help and we promise we won’t lecture you! After all, we’re your oral health care partner and your oral health is just as important to us as it is to you.
- Control
If you don’t like feeling like you have no control over what happens in the dentist chair, come to Downtown Dental, your Vancouver dentist, for a dental experience like no other. We promise to do our best to communicate with you, both online and offline <<LINK>>. We’ll work out a system that allows you to alert us to any trouble or discomfort during a procedure.
