In this episode Brad talks about Dental Phobia, which may not be the most comfortable listen for some. However Brad puts your mind at ease by explaining the ways in which dentistry has changed over the years that make dentistry more comfortable, less painful and even pleasant for patients young and old.

Whether you have treatment coming up and want to know more information, or curious about what options are out there for cosmetic dentistry, Lets Talk Teeth with Brad will give you the knowledge you need to make decisions about your dental care and oral health. Presented in an easy to understand way, the purpose of the show is to inform and empower you, the patient, to have the confidence about your treatment and take control of your dental health.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Dentists expect most people have anxiety about walking through the door of the surgery, from simply being unhappy at needing to visit the dentist to being petrified and the only reason they are there is because they are in pain. Dentists are trained to help put people at ease.
In watching Brad’s YouTube videos and listening to this podcast, your mind can be put at ease knowing that Brad is a normal person who also gets nervous, but he and all dentists are empathetic.
Anxieties stem from a stressful event or events in the past. Time can be a powerful editor of reality, it doesn’t matter what happened in reality, it matters what your memory is telling you happened. 
Advances in pain medication, anaesthetics, dental treatments and materials have made dental procedures more comfortable and less painful – if not pain free. 
Coming to the dentist is a good idea, especially if you’re nervous, because the last thing you want to have is more advanced treatment. We want to pick things up early and deal with them before they become a problem.

BEST MOMENTS

‘What on earth can I talk about today that’s going to make you feel more comfortable about visiting the dentist?

‘It’s all about trust.’

‘Times have changed. We no longer put our foot on your chest to pull a tooth out. Not that I can imagine that ever happened.’

‘We want to prevent things from getting worse so that your visits to the dentist are stress free, easy and dare I say, enjoyable.’
