Nervous Patients Bexley

At Moltons Dental & Aesthetics, we understand that visiting the dentist isn't easy for everyone. If you're one of the many nervous patients in Bexley who experiences anxiety or fear about dental treatment, you are not alone — and more importantly, you are not without options. Our calm, compassionate approach is tailored to make every visit more comfortable and reassuring.

Gentle Dentistry for Nervous Patients

Dental anxiety can stem from a previous bad experience, a fear of pain, or simply feeling out of control. That's why at Moltons Dental & Aesthetics, we take extra time to understand your concerns and go at a pace that suits you. Whether your fear is mild or more severe, our warm and welcoming team is here to support you throughout your dental journey.

We believe that everyone deserves access to excellent dental care, regardless of their level of anxiety. Our team is experienced in caring for nervous patients and will always:

  • Listen to your concerns without judgement
  • Explain treatments clearly and calmly
  • Allow you to take breaks when needed
  • Ensure you remain in control at all times

Helping You Overcome Dental Phobia

For some patients, dental phobia can prevent them from visiting a dentist for years. This may result in complex dental issues that require treatments such as implants or extractions. At Moltons Dental & Aesthetics, we offer gentle, staged care to rebuild your confidence and help you restore your oral health in a safe and reassuring way.

We have developed a nervous patient programme designed to provide extra support and reassurance for those who feel particularly anxious. With time, patience, and understanding, we have helped many patients in Bexley overcome their fear and feel empowered about their oral health.

IV Sedation for Nervous Dental Patients

We also offer intravenous (IV) sedation for those who need extra support during treatment. Also known as conscious sedation, IV sedation helps you feel deeply relaxed without losing awareness completely.

Benefits of IV Sedation:

  • Reduces anxiety and discomfort
  • Often results in partial or full memory loss of the procedure
  • Allows complex treatments to be completed in fewer visits
  • Maintains a level of consciousness for safety

After IV sedation, the effects may linger for several hours. To ensure your safety, we recommend you avoid driving, using machinery, or signing important documents for the rest of the day.

If you've been putting off the dentist because of nerves or fear, you don't have to anymore. Our caring team at Moltons Dental & Aesthetics in Bexley is here to support you from your very first visit.
