It’s not common for different people to experience dental anxiety for different reasons. For some people the anxiety is linked to a feeling that they don’t control over their own body. Asking a few basic questions at the start of the procedure can help you ask intelligent questions. Gaining a deeper understanding of what is going on helps many people feel empowered.
