Dental fear
As experience grows, fear diminishes
Dental treatment causes fear in women, in particular. Women are more fearful of dental treatment procedures than men, but even their fears are alleviated as their experience grows.
Dental treatment of those afraid of it
can be made easier for them
The dentist can ease the fear of an anxious patient through his/her actions. The patient can ease the feeling himself/herself, too. It is important to get used to regular dental visits regardless of the fear.
