Have dental anxiety? Ask for NuCalm. West Kelowna dentist explains

At our West Kelowna dental clinic, Health and Beauty Dentistry by Dr. Shauna Palmer, we see many patients with dental anxiety. These patients should not feel alone. It's estimated that 9%-15% of North Americans actively avoid visiting the dentist due to anxiety.
Thankfully, there is a way for patients to experience a spa-like dental experience full of natural relaxation.

Though the title "Sedation Dentist" is not applicable to any dentist (there is no official certification for this area of treatment), West Kelowna General Dentist Dr. Shauna Palmer has become quite experienced with treating patients who are in need of stress and anxiety reduction.
How is NuCalm used in sedation dentistry?
NuCalm is designed to reduce stress and anxiety. It combines four approaches to relax the body and mind:
Non-narcotic cream applied to the neck that naturally suppresses adrenaline
Micro current pads placed behind the patient’s ears
Light-blocking glasses remove visual stimuli
Headphones block clinical sounds and provide soothing tones
These four components combine to relieve anxiety and reduce muscle tension. It is known as safe, effective, and works within minutes.
Some compare NuCalm to the sensation you have just before falling asleep. Many patients feel rejuvenated for days after the therapy. NuCalm relaxes you and washes away your anxieties, making it an excellent tool for dentistry.
NuCalm is used as a form of sedation dentistry. It is perfect for patients that experience dental anxiety, as it naturally reduces stress during procedures. It can also be used with patients that simply prefer a more comfortable trip to the dentist.
