Visiting the dentist can feel a bit daunting, but as a family dentist in Oregon City, we strive to change that experience by creating a warm, relaxing environment and offering personalized care. If you’re feeling a little nervous about your next appointment, we’ve put together some helpful tips to ensure your visit is as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Keep Us in the Loop

If you have concerns, questions or specific needs, don’t hesitate to share them with Dr. Greenstein. If you’re worried about forgetting anything, write it down beforehand to ensure you don’t. At Oregon City Dentistry, your comfort and peace of mind are our top priorities, and we want to make your experience as positive as possible. Your trust means everything to us.

Timing Is Everything

A calm dental visit starts with scheduling your appointment at the best time for you. Choose a day and time when your schedule isn’t already packed with commitments. Even better? Turn your appointment day into a self-care day by planning a fun or relaxing activity afterward. Whether it’s a trip to your favorite coffee shop or a peaceful walk in the park, starting your visit with a calm mindset can make all the difference.

Make Yourself Comfortable

We understand that dental visits can be anxiety-inducing for some, which is why Oregon City Dentistry goes the extra mile to make you feel right at home. Here’s how we help keep you comfortable during your appointment:
  • TVs in the ceiling to help you focus on your favorite shows, rather than the procedure
  • Warm neck pillows for relaxation
  • Cozy blankets to make you feel snug and secure
  • Dark glasses to reduce bright light intensity
  • Desensitizing or numbing options for added comfort during cleanings
Our team is dedicated to ensuring you feel cared for and at ease during your entire visit.

Distractions are Key

While dental treatments might require your patience, distractions can help ease any stress. Consider bringing along an audiobook, calming music or a favorite podcast to listen to during your appointment. With our TVs and noise-canceling atmosphere, you can immerse yourself in something comforting while we take care of your teeth.

Support Is Always Welcome

If you feel uneasy about visiting the dentist alone, don’t hesitate to bring along a trusted friend or family member. Having someone supportive by your side can make the experience far less intimidating. They can provide comfort, hold your hand and even help you remember any questions you’d like to ask.
