One of the main things preventing people coming to the dentist?

noreply@blogger.com (Dr Rob Endicott, Dental Surgeon) — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 10:35:00 +0000

In a simple word, GUILT! This is what happened to me and happened to so many of our patients.

The spiral goes as follows - does this sound familiar?

You develop a dental problem and you know youve got to get it sorted out because it could cause you more problems.

BUT - you are afraid of going to the dentist, so you wait to build courage.

BUT - courage never comes, because instead, worry takes over. Worry drowns out courage!

SO - you delay and then problem gets worse, to the point where desperation takes over and it starts to dominate your life.

SO - you feel guilty that when you do eventually see a dentist, they are going to make you feel guilty by saying "well, if you'd gone earlier, you wouldnt have had this problem"

We get emails all the time from people in this predicament and we make them a promise straight away - WE WILL NOT MAKE YOU FEEL GUILTY!!! WE UNDERSTAND THIS SPIRAL!!! Ive been there myself, i know how it feels.

So - we wont make you feel guilty, we will treat you with respect and when it comes to the actual treatment, we will do everything we can to make it as comfortable as we know how!

Long treatments made easy

One of the great things about sedation is how much you are able to
have done in one visit.

Today we did a complete clean (90mins) two front fillings and when
asked, the patient said it had felt like 10 minutes. Totally pain free!

I like pain free dentistry!

With best wishes

Some Dental Phobic Stories

noreply@blogger.com (Dr Rob Endicott, Dental Surgeon) — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 07:45:00 +0000

Here are just a few of the many enquiries we get from people, the stories they have – any of these sound familiar?

"Rob, Thanks for your email. 20 years ago i was given a injection it was put so fast it blew up. I was in so much pain i cant tell you what it was like so over the past 20 years i havent been to the dentist. I did not know why my teeth over the past 5 years started to fall out split and crack…."

"Dear Rob, I have not been to a dentist in a long ,long time ,I have 3 wisdom teeth through partially , 2 broken teeth not visible and probably many fillings that need replacing,I have quite a bit of sensitivity in my teeth and the back of my lower teeth make me very sad as they have quite a build up on them and they are sensitive,I have also just had antibiotics for the first time in 10 years as a small abscess came up on the gum of the broken bottom tooth,how crazy is all this, please tell me you have seen or heard about worse! Currently If I could just go to sleep and wake up with all the work done I would be so happy! "

"I have not forgotten about your practice and I am in the position with this massive black hole below my gumline where I should have a tooth and I am petrified of having this extracted but trying to work up the courage to see you.

How do I go about meeting for a chat because this is taking over my life at the moment. I am so scared about this and what you will say about it and that I should never have left it as years and years ago it could have been saved and I am scared that it is poisoning by body as I hear horror stories! "

"My name is xxxx and I am 27. I have not been to a dentist for 11 years and hate myself for it more than i could ever express. It has got to the point that i would be too embarrassed to go now, but I need to do it I know I do. Please Help Me!"

This is just a selection from the last two weeks, we've edited them slightly to take names and details out.

These are such common stories but we are convinced here that "cowardice" and "being brave" and "guilt" shouldn't enter into things – Dentistry is a Phobia and as phobias go, it is actually quite rational!

If any of these sound familiar and you need some help, do drop us an email!

With best wishes

Gas and Air - a needle free way to easy Dentistry

noreply@blogger.com (Dr Rob Endicott, Dental Surgeon) — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 21:14:00 +0000

Weve recently invested in specialised sedation equipement that can sedate
patients without any needles. Using Nitrous oxide, it gives a lovely happy
drowsy feeling (awesome laughing gas) without the side effects that gas used
to have.

Its very quick to work, very quick to come back out you can return to normal
life very easily.

Perfect for dental phobics and people who just want to have an easy time
during a long appointment.

We can even do a "trial session" to see how you would get on, without doing
any dentistry!

We will start to post success stories very soon.

With best wishes

New Plans

noreply@blogger.com (Dr Rob Endicott, Dental Surgeon) — Sun, 22 Feb 2009 21:43:00 +0000

We are doing loads of sedation thesedays so I want to make it even better.

Plans for 2009 include:

Dedicated relaxation and recovery room, be pampered and relaxed before you
even come into the surgery.

Nitrous Oxide - Laughing Gas! Brilliant relaxation gas, no sickness, very
pleasant, can be used on its own or with IV, so if you are scared of
needles, we can give you some gas first, so you are very chilled for the IV.

Kids Sedation with Nitrous - easy stuff, if your child is not keen on
needles and drilling, Nitrous makes life easy and is very, Very safe!

Will keep you posted.

All the best

Great Case last week

noreply@blogger.com (Dr Rob Endicott, Dental Surgeon) — Sun, 22 Feb 2009 21:40:00 +0000

Guy came to see us, been putting off dentistry for years after lots of bad
experiences. Its that familiar story of the longer problems get left, the
worse they get, the more guilty you feel, the less liekly you are to come in
a seek treatment, the worse things get etc etc.

He decided to break that cycle with just one phone call!

In two sessions we carried out about 7 or 8 appointments worth of work,
including extractions, root canal work - he didn't care! Each session was
about three hours long, afterwards it felt like about 15 minutes.

When I spoke to him afterwards he said "I'm numb, but I don't remember you
giving me an injection - how's that?" and also "lets have a look, I cant
believe you did all that!"

He was beautifully relaxed all the way through - an absolutely textbook
case!

It just goes to show if you are in that "Guilt Rut", all it takes is one
phone call. Come in and talk to me, free of charge, see what you think of
us.

All the best

Rob

Local Award Winning Dentist Reveals Why the “Snooze while we treat you”
Dental Practice Has Everyone Talking….

Free Offer until end of 2008! No obligation consultation to decide whether we are the practice for you!!

If you have been terrified to go to the dentist or hate getting any dental work done, then you must read this letter as it may be the most important letter you ever read when it comes to finding out how you can have an enjoyable, pain-free, stress-free experience when you go to the dentist.

A few years ago, I came across a very special procedure that only a small percentage of dentists are doing that has absolutely changed the lives of many patients because it allows anyone to get all the dental care they need without any fear or pain.

But first, let me tell you that how I came across this “magical procedure”. Whilst visiting an old friend from Dental School he invited me to visit his practice. In his practice, I noticed that there were lots of incredible things going on. But, that’s not all.

I saw men and women who had the most awful fears and phobias of dental care that you could ever imagine. They left the practice after their first visit saying this was the most pleasant and enjoyable experience they’ve ever had at any dentists practice.

I saw people completely fearful walking in, but within moments of their treatment starting they were as calm and relaxed as a sleeping baby. I heard stories from patients who had suffered their entire life in fear of even the slightest thought of needles, or the smell, or sounds of the dental practice. They were now completely confident and fearless. The best part was that they had healthier and more beautiful teeth than ever before, because of what occurred within a very short time of being in this dentist’s practice.

I saw letters sent to my friend from his patients, saying things like…

“I put off going to the dentist for over 10 years because of terrifying experiences I had as a child. Because of this, my teeth had become broken, chipped, stained and extremely embarrassing. I used to be self conscious about my smile, but now I feel confident and more attractive.”

“I used to shiver all over even just thinking about going to the dentist, but my friend convinced me to see her dentist, he has changed my life! I’m no longer afraid of what will be done to me because I’m so relaxed when I’m in the chair I just don’t care! Now I convince my friends and family to go!!”

I realised I was seeing miracles happen.

The patients, not surprisingly, all loved my friend because he had made such a difference in their lives. They left the practice feeling great, and having a whole new view of going to the dentist. In fact, many of them referred family and friends. I was so impressed…I decided to get trained in Sedation dentistry myself!!
Here are some examples of how sedation dentistry has literally changed people’s lives.
Anne’s story: Anne hadn’t visited a dentist for 27 years she had been regularly as a child until in her teens. But the visits were very traumatic and left both her and her siblings frightened of all dentists. Her teeth were in relatively bad shape and needed a lot of work.

“As the years went by, I tried to look after my teeth the best I could, going as far as putting temporary fillings
(Bought over the counter in pharmacies) into the holes myself to avoid going to the dentist. But then it became obvious that in order to keep my teeth healthy and painless I would have to visit a dentist, either that or continue to eat soft foods, have bad breath, and never smile again.

One day, I was thumbing through the newspaper when I came across an article about a local dentist who claimed that he could give pain-free dentistry and get up to 4 visits worth of treatment completed in just one visit. I thought to myself, “This just can’t be true.” However, I convinced myself that I was a big girl and could handle a FREE Consultation.

I could not have found a better dental practice. They took time with me to find out about my phobia and what had caused it. Even though I could hardly sit still in chair during the initial consultation they were both Gentle and very kind. The results of the exam showed that I needed many fillings, and several root canals.

I wanted to be knocked out with a general anesthetic I didn’t care how much it cost, however the dentist suggested conscious sedation. I was scared that it wouldn’t work but felt it would be better to have the dental work done with something rather than nothing at all.

We scheduled half of the work to be done. I believe I was one of the first patients in the practice to be treated under conscious sedation. I was calm, cooperative, and awake enough to understand what was going on, but felt no pain. My husband drove me home. I took a nap and then upon waking I could not believe how much better I felt. I had no qualms booking the second appointment.

Once my husband saw how well sedation went for me, he has now refused to go back to his own dentist and has had the treatment done under sedation here, and like me didn’t feel any pain at all.

“For the first time in years, I can smile and feel confident about my smile, I get compliments on how beautiful my teeth are all the time but more importantly I’m no longer in pain. Conscious sedation makes going to the dentist easier to cope with and even enjoyable, if you can believe that. I joked with Rob, saying that it still may not be the most favorite place to visit, but that at least I didn’t consider it the worst.”

Kevin’s story: Kevin had so many bad experiences involving his teeth and fear of going to the dentist that he put off going to a dentist for a little over 10 years. He can vividly remember being 12 years old and breaking all of his front teeth, as he had just attempted to ride his bike down some stairs.

In his initial examination, Kevin explained how he was able to remember the dentist “yelling at me, and fighting with me, as my Mother, and a dental assistant fought to keep me in the chair.”

In his own words Kevin explained, “This dentist, in my opinion was ill equipped to treat a dog, much less a scared child over the years I was taken to many different dentists by my parents, but none of them seemed to understand my fear. I became phobic of all dentists; I wouldn’t smile because of my embarrassment. I was constantly in pain, because of several abscesses and broken teeth which of course meant I had trouble eating. Worst of all, it was almost impossible to get me numb. I felt EVERYTHING.

Quayside Dental Practice impressed me because everything was state of the art and the patient care was no exception. After my examination I was told, that I would need a total of 6 root canals on my top teeth and would need several “restorations” just to get me started. I was a mess! I was terrified of the pain that I knew was coming. Then Rob explained the option of “conscious sedation.” He told me that I would not really be “under”, but I would be unaware of what was going on and that it was a very safe procedure.

On the day of the appointment I only remember my friend driving me to the surgery. And that was it! The procedure went well, I was not totally out, but felt so relaxed. It was a fantastic experience! When the sedation wore off, I had a row of BEAUTIFUL teeth to smile with and I don’t recall any pain at ALL! I can’t even begin to tell you how this positively affected my life and what this did for my career and my self-esteem. The best thing is that I am no longer afraid of dentists.

Simply put, when you come to our practice “Snooze while we treat you”
Come to us for conscious sedation if you…Have a fear of needles
Have had bad experiences in their past with a dentist or in a dental practice
Have dental phobias
Fear the pain associated with dentistry
Hate drills or the smell of the dental practice,
Have children who fear the dentist,

Can’t get numb with anesthesia
Want to sleep through their dental care using sedation dentistry,
Or simply anyone who wants a dentist who will give an anxiety-free and pain-free experience, with the backup of a Long Lasting Guarantee!

Many of my patients have tried different ways to alleviate their fear of going to the dentist in the past with little or no success. But they never thought they would find a practice like Quayside Dental Practice where fear, pain, and anxiety were things of the past.

Several times a week patients thank me for curing their fears and giving them a confident more attractive smile and curing ANY fear they had of going to the dentist. But I can’t take the credit. What I do is perform sedation dentistry that allows you to come in and snooze through your dental care. What’s so great about this is that you can get 4 visits worth of treatment done in just ONE visit because you are relaxed and having a “snooze”.

Here’s how sedation dentistry works!

I know you may think it's too good to be true, too far fetched that I can eliminate any fear you have had regarding going to the dentist in just one visit! I understand. I was just as skeptical. Maybe more so.

I have heard so many promises about pain free dental care and transforming ugly smiles into gorgeous smiles in just one visit that I have become almost overly skeptical bout people who made such claims. That is why I always test everything I
Do in my practice on myself, family and friends.

However, with all the real life examples I had seen, the proof was staring me right in the eyes. My instincts told me to start doing it myself, and I don’t know how I practiced all those years without it. And, the best part of sedation dentistry is that you will wake up with all your dental work done having felt no pain at all. It will be the most pleasurable experience at a dental practice that you could ever imagine.

While the procedure is amazing in itself, there are dozens of reasons why people absolutely love our practice, but here are 10 specific reasons people can’t help but tell their friends and family about us:

10 Reasons Why People Are Ecstatic About

Bubble gum numbing gel: this powerful gel stops the prickle feeling of the injection. We never do injections without it!

No Lecture Dental Practice- studies have shown that the number one reason people put off their dental care has nothing to do with fear or pain, but has to do with the guilt of putting off the dentist. People keep putting it off, because they are afraid to get lectured by the Dentist and staff. At our practice, if we lecture you or make you feel guilty, your visit is FREE!

CEREC One visit Dentistry – we can do crowns and large fillings in one session using incredibly strong white ceramic material – so natural looking and have a TEN YEAR GUARANTEE!

I’ve never heard of another dentist who will make such a claim. We can do this, because we are so confident you will absolutely love your visit!
