I am anxious when attending dentist- does the fear transfer to my child?

It is wise to schedule separate appointment for your child - independent from your own treatment so that are relaxed when accompanying your child. The first visits at the dentist should only satisfy control purposes in order to make children familiar with dental practices and treatment situation and atmosphere. Avoid phrases like "You don´t need to be scared" or "it won´t hurt", because your child will only understand "fear" and "it could be painful".
Our goal is for your child to experience a pleasant first dental appointment and that your child will be looking forward to visit our practice for children and adolescent dentistry.
