Is our practice suitable for nervous and anxious patients?

Yes, SmilesHQ is well-suited for nervous patients. We understand visiting the dentist can be extremely daunting for many people, which is why our friendly team takes the time to create a calm, supportive environment. From gentle treatments to personalised care plans, we aim to ensure every patient feels comfortable and confident throughout their visit, helping to build positive dental experiences.

Sedation Dentistry for Nervous Patients

We offer nitrous oxide, also called 'happy gas' or 'laughing gas', to help many nervous patients feel calmer and more comfortable during treatment. You inhale the gas through a thin tube or nasal hood, and the effects help you feel very calm and relaxed. Our dental team will discuss whether nitrous oxide is suitable for your specific needs during your consultation.

A Judgment-Free Dental Clinic

SmilesHQ is a completely judgement-free dental practice in Warners Bay. Our team is very understanding and has worked with countless patients who've postponed dental care for long periods due to fear.

We believe that where your oral health journey takes you from today forward is more important than where it’s been. Our only concern is helping you get back on track in a way that feels right for you.

During treatment, we take time to explain each step before we begin, working at your pace, and encouraging you to communicate if you feel uncomfortable at any point. You deserve to feel secure and comfortable in our care whenever you choose to visit.

Comforting Amenities to Soothe Anxiety

At our Newcastle practice, you will find a welcoming environment designed specifically for patients like you. To provide a pleasant distraction, we’ve equipped each treatment room with a TV so you can watch your favourite series while we work. We also provide noise-cancelling headphones to block out clinical sounds that many patients find unsettling.

If you would like to experience our environment, we welcome you to call SmilesHQ to arrange a visit. Our team will be happy to discuss how we can make your dental experience as personalised as possible.
