Dental Phobia Certified
“I was put at ease and made to feel welcome. I was really pleased with my treatment. Would definitely recommend!!”
If you’re nervous about seeing a dentist, you’re not alone. Dental phobia affects thousands of patients in London. It can range from minor anxiety that leaves you feeling uncomfortable in the treatment chair right through to a full-blown phobia that prevents you from visiting us.
Dr Neera Maini understands the negative impact that dental phobias can have on your oral health – especially if it means you haven’t had a dental checkup in years.
Dr Maini has created a relaxing environment at Aqua Dental Clinic, using a range of relaxation techniques to put even the most anxious patients at ease. Our nervous patient programme is one of the reasons patients travel from across the UK and sometimes from overseas to see us.
Experience the gentle, dreamlike state of sedation during treatment by Dr Maini, who benefits from more than a decade of experience as a sedation dentist treating nervous patients.
We answer any questions and discuss treatments in detail to make the dental experience less stressful.
