If you suffer from anxiety and fear and experience these emotions when you are about to have your teeth treated the best thing is for the dentist to start off with a simple treatment such as professional teeth cleaning. This painless cosmetic treatment might help the patient to feel more at ease while sitting in a dentist's chair. Once the patient is feeling relaxed and adapts to the environment, the dentist can proceed to treat the patient for cavities or other treatments requiring drilling and anesthesia.
In those few cases when the patient simply can't get rid of adversed emotions, a mild tranquilizer is used an hour before undergoing necessary treatments.
