Dentist in kent for nervous patients

Nervous about dental treatment? Speak to our expert team today.

Dentalphobia

Dentalphobia is a common condition and one with which we at Parrock Dental are particularly good at dealing. We understand that coming to the dentist can be stressful and even frightening, but our staff are trained to help you ease your anxiety and get the most from your visit.

Our Solution

If you are particularly concerned about a procedure, we can offer intravenous (IV). Although both techniques are very safe and extremely effective, IVs can temporarily inhibit your ability to drive, use machinery or drink alcohol, so your practitioner will advise you of your options based on your individual requirements.

Nervous Patients Testimonials

Missing and broken teeth, over 20 years as a dental phobic – Liam

Dental Implant

Name: Liam

Age: 22

Occupation: Unknown

Problem: Missing and broken teeth,over 20 years as a dental phobic, with pain, no confidence and unable to chew

Treatment: Same day Dental Implant Fixed teeth for instant pain free smile, chewing and confidence

Treatment period: 4 months

“ I had a mouthful of broken teeth. I was very nervous about seeing the dentists and having treatment. I knew I needed all my teeth removed at a young age. After one visit with Rik I felt comfortable and relaxed. I knew I didn’t need to be sedated as I was in safe hands. I had the teeth taken out, the implants placed and given fixed bridgework in approximately a couple of hours. I didn’t feel a thing from the beginning to the end and even after. I took only one pain killer as a precaution but didn’t need any more. The treatment has changed my life. I can smile I can eat and I feel so confident it has simply changed my life and I can’t thank my dentist for referring me, Rik and Parrock Dental enough. ”

My story started many years ago after losing teeth to trauma incidents, it progressed with neglect, non-regular dentist visits & smoking. When teeth begin to go they go ! One by one (if not addressed) the next inline falls.

Life circumstance always got in the way to do something about it (I kept telling myself). In reality I just kept putting it off. Pain, infection & discomfort followed & plagued me for years. Eventually I pulled the last few myself, ouch !

It’s very embarrassing being middle aged with no teeth, I felt very old when I stared back at myself in the mirror. A high-profile job & the butt of jokes (albeit well-meaning jokes) I suppose is what eventually drove me to do something about it. I could not perform at my best whilst speaking to a room, this effected business with continued self-consciousness in my appearance.

A year of research led me to Parrock Dental & Rick to undertake my full mouth restoration. You see if you research not all implant surgeons are equal. Many dental practices offer it; however, not all are fully qualified to do so, Rick is !

I wont lie it was costly however a valued investment in myself.
Compared to other practices Parrock are very, very reasonable in their costs for what you get. but it all about the outcome right ?

I cannot compliment Rick and the whole Parrock team enough, they have been absolutely fantastic, from receptionists to the nurse technicians. For me it has been a privilege to have found Parrock Dental, they have given me back a perfect smile and most important my confidence again.

One thing to add (as I know many reading & researching will want to know) before you pull the trigger on your full restoration journey, was it painful ? Well, the honest answer is not as half as what is imagined. I learned many years ago fear on the most part is imagined pain & not reality. I wont lie, it is an uncomfortable procedure to undertake but is very well managed by Parrock team & NOT agonising pain. A day of uncomfortableness is well worth a life changing outcome is it not !

Such is my confidence in Rick & the Parrock team, I am more than willing to talk directly with you and discuss my journey. I would love to help you if I can as Parrock has helped me, definitely !
Regards,

My life has totally changed since I had my implant at Parrock Dental. Rick and his team have been amazing. From the initial assessment to the actual procedure the process was flawless. Before my implant I was not comfortable with my smile so I was afraid to take photos. Since my implant I now have the biggest smile in my photos. The team at Parrock Dental are always available for any questions or concerns. I strongly recommend Parrock Dental for all your dental needs.

Well what a wonderful service I have received from this Dental Practice. Rik was so empathetic and caring from the first day I met him. My complex bone grafts and implants were perhaps very challenging. But i5 did not phase Rik, as he is a perfectionist in his own right. Absolutely fantastic team from receptionists to nurses and the after care was wonderful too. For me it has been an honour and a privilege to have found my perfect Dentist, who now is giving me back my perfect smile ☺ Thank you all so much for helping me through my difficult and complex needs. Both me and my partner highly recommend your professional services completely. ♡♡♡♡♡♡

I had full top and bottom full mouth dental implants here I'm so pleased with the results. Having been a patient here for over 20 years I highly recommend rik and his team for the excellent service I have had over the years.

My molars have been difficult for years, until I found Parrock Dental. I've been treated with respect and kindness and given the best treatment that I could've wanted.
So far, I've had a couple of teeth rebuilt, rather than patched up, and I've had one implant.
Dr Rik is so reassuring and professional and the whole team looks after you so well.
I am very happy with my implant, it is comfortable and easy to use and keep clean, the colour blends into my mouth perfectly.
I also discovered how useful dental hygiene treatment and advice is. I had no idea how to get rid of my swollen gums nor that you should have actual gaps between your teeth at gum level. I have always been to the dentist twice a year, however no one has talked about brushing at an angle between the gum and the tooth!
Thank you Parrock Dental, I wish that I'd come to you years ago.

I had full mouth implants here with Dr Rik Trivedi i smile more now and i am alot more confident. I wish i met him sooner he is very calm and helpful if you are a nervous. The team are so helpful and answer all your questions. There is no pressure and the team we always sit with you and explain in detail. Rik has done amazing job and helped every step of the way. Thank you you to Rik and jacqui and also morgan for the journey.

I've just completed my full mouth dental implant treatment with Rik. As somebody who suffered severe nervousness and anxiety about going to the dentist I couldn't have asked for better treatment.

From the moment I walked into the surgery I felt relaxed and discussing my treatment plan with Rik and his team was completely stress free. Rik has a very relaxed manner and explained everything clearly even on the day of my surgery.

My mouth was full of broken teeth with several missing altogether, I suffered pain when chewing and was very conscious of how my smile looked. That has all changed now and I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Rik and the team.

If, like I was, your teeth are in a mess, then don't hesitate to contact Parrock Dental & Implant Centres. They can and will sort you out!
