Dental Anxiety Chandigarh
Cause of dental anxiety
Before we understand the ways to deal with dental anxiety, it is essential to know the root cause behind it. There is no single reason why one gets dental anxiety.
Every person has triggers. To learn effective ways to deal with them, discuss them with our team at Bristles Dental Studios.
Experience
You might have had a previous bad experience at a dentist that could act as a trigger. Some people stop going to the dentist after one bad incident and avoid regular checkups, which can lead to future complications.

Other’s experience
Experiences from other people can also significantly impact your mind. If you hear stories about different people having negative dental experiences, it can affect you.
Childhood fear
White coat phobia is common in children, and this can continue as dental anxiety or fear in adults. If you have had minimal or bad past experiences in childhood, it can manifest as dental anxiety in adults.
Dental myths
