Nervous Patients

Islington Smiles is a patient-centred practice where the patient is always put first, helping us provide a safe, inviting environment for even our most nervous patients.

At Islington Smiles, we understand that for some patients even the thought of visiting the dentist can be overwhelming and anxiety inducing. Dental phobias and anxiety over certain dental treatments are pretty common, but we do everything we can to help our patients feel welcome, relaxed, comfortable and confident when visiting Islington Smiles.

With our patient-centred ethos, we’ll answer any questions you might have, talk you through your treatment step-by-step, or, if you prefer to be distracted, let you listen to your favourite music or podcast while receiving treatment. Here, it’s all about what makes you feel comfortable and confident.

Islington Smiles is also a judgement-free practice, which means no matter how long ago your last dental check-up was, or how bad you think your oral health has become, we’ll only ever greet you with kindness and respect. At Islington Smiles, our compassionate team love helping our nervous patients feel at home just as much as they love returning a happy smile to their face.
