5 Tips to Help You Cope with Dental Anxiety

Although regular visits to the dentist's office are very important to maintain healthy teeth and gums, many people avoid going to appointments due to dental anxiety. In fact, it is a very common issue that can affect as many as 36% of the population. Dental anxiety can lead you to avoid appointments or allow too much time between scheduled appointments, which can lead to oral health issues. Lack of professional and regular cleanings also increases the risk for gum disease and other issues such as cavities, loose teeth, and bad breath.
