A leading British hypno-psychotherapist explains how dental phobia and dentist fear can be successfully treated with hypnotherapy. If you have experienced dental fear, fear of the dentist or fear of dental procedures, then this article is for you…
Dental phobia and dentist fear are conditions often seen by the hypnotherapist. Usually, clients who have suffered from this crippling fear for most of their lives are amazed to find that after just a couple of sessions of hypnotherapy they have been released from their often overwhelming fear of the dentist.
After brief hypno-psychotherapy, they can at last visit the dentist and begin the process of restoring their dental health in a calm and relaxed manner, without the heart-palpitating, terrible feelings of anxiety and panic that they had previously experienced when thinking about, or actually visiting the dentist.
When it comes to dental phobia and fear of dental procedures, research has shown that it is a surprisingly common condition. Indeed, according to a really comprehensive survey conducted by the British Dental Association, a full 25% of the general population actually have a fear of the dentist and a fear of dental procedures.
In cases of really severe dental phobia, the mere sight of a dental practice, or even a toothpaste commercial can provoke feelings of anxiety.
Very often, by the time the individual with a dentist phobia or fear of the dentist actually arrives at the hypnotherapy office, they have already allowed their teeth, gums and general oral health to reach such a poor state that they really have no choice but to take action.
Often, their dentist will have referred them so that they can free themselves of this very real - yet totally unnecessary and incapacitating - fear.
Many people will have already suffered agonising pain and discomfort because of their poor oral health, yet so great has been their dentist fear and dentist phobia that they have felt compelled to struggle on regardless, avoiding seeking proper dental care.
The simple truth is that their dental fear has somehow been more powerful than the real pain and unsightliness of their decaying teeth and painful gums.
The origins of dental phobia very often lie in previous negative or painful experiences that the individual has undergone at some time in the past when visiting the dentist. Sometimes, such fear can be passed on from a parent, or it can even be caused by unhelpful comments made by a dentist or dental nurse during previous dental procedures.
Additionally, feelings of vulnerability and loss of control, perhaps combined with an underlying fear of the unknown, can be set in motion by the very thought of being in the dentist’s chair. With today’s advances in modern dentistry, combined with modern pain control techniques, there really is no reason why a visit to the dentist need be a painful or fearful experience. Sparkling teeth and healthy gums can be yours — without any unnecessary discomfort or pain.
Perhaps you already know this. Perhaps you are already aware that your dental phobia and fear of dental treatment is unrealistic and largely irrational. But knowing this and being empowered to conquer it are, of course, different things.
The good news is that no-one is born with this fear and, since dental phobia and dentist fear - in common with all phobias - is a learned behaviour, it can indeed be ‘unlearned’. Here is where professional transformational hypnotherapy can be of real assistance.
In most instances, it is a fear that can be completely neutralized in just two sessions of effective hypnotherapy.
Through the medium of advanced hypnotherapy, correctly applied, you truly can free yourself from any unnecessary fear of the dentist or fear of dental procedures. It really is possible for you to put an end to your dental phobia and fear of the dentist.
When you are aware that modern dentistry can indeed provide effective yet pain-free treatment, it makes sense to let go of this very real block to dental health.
If you or someone you care about suffers from dental phobia or fear of the dentist , seek out a fully trained and experienced transformational hypnotherapist and put the smile back on your face!
