Dental Anxiety
It is not uncommon to experience nervousness, dental phobia or dental anxiety before visiting the dentist. Dental anxiety can be caused by a variety of factors, depending on a patient’s circumstances and experiences. Some people are embarrassed about their poor oral hygiene, or the appearance of their teeth. Others have extremely sensitive teeth, a strong gag reflex, or be afraid of needles and dental equipment.
Dental anxiety can carry from childhood into adulthood, preventing people from making appointments for dental appointments, which over time can lead to several dental issues.
Your environment
At platinum Dental care, we prioritise in proving our patients with a friendly, caring service ensuring that they are comfortable throughout their journey with us. From the earthy wooden beams and brick walls to the flowery smells and the soft music, we have taken extra steps to make sure the environment of our practice is serene and tranquil, and in a way, less clinical.
Your Dentist
All our dentists and nurses are specially trained to treat anxious patients. Their warm and professional demeanour will put you at ease. They will spend time with you explaining options and treatment procedures, as well as making sure that you are always cared for and comfortable. They will also structure appointments for you in a way that will make your treatment feel less overwhelming.
Mindfullness
Practising mindfulness can also help to alleviate any fear or nervousness. This includes discussing your anxiety with your dentist during your visit, using headphones to listen to music whilst having treatment, and visiting regularly to prevent future problems.
Don’t let dental anxiety keep you from visiting us to help maintain your oral health. Call us today to book your appointment
The Wand®
The Wand® is advanced technology for pain-free anaesthesia and is fast becoming the preferred method of numbing before a dental procedure for anxious patients.
How does it work?
The Wand® is a computer-controlled pen-like device that delivers a steady flow of anaesthesia directly to the treatment site. The result is a pain-free and comfortable numbing experience. Only the area around the affected tooth will be numbed, which means you can get back to work or your family right after your procedure.
Call Platinum Dental Care today and ask us about how The Wand® can help you relax and then get back to your life faster after a dental procedure.
Very much recommend. First time going to Platinum for a dental cleaning and was very happy at the speed and professionalism of the service. Previously going to BUPA and felt that the experience was a notch better. Very easy online booking system. The Hygienist, Priya Dhain was excellent - attentive and provided helpful advice, and would definitely recommend.
I came to get my teeth cleaned and couldn't be happier with Camilla's work!
She made me feel calm and relaxed, and her reassuring words put me at ease. I couldn't recommend her enough!
I've been very impressed with Platinum Dental Care from the outset. They are a warm and professional team with extreme technical proficiency – Ronnie in particular. On the rare occasion when I've had dental issue, they have always worked very hard to squeeze me in at short notice and take of the problem in every sense: by clearly outlining the treatment plan, providing personal reassurance and comfort during the actual procedure, through to financing advice around payment plans. Without doubt the best dentist I have ever had. Would strongly recommend.
Platinum Dental Care is easily the friendliest, most professional and highest quality dentist in London. The whole team consistently does everything they can to make sure you get the best treatment possible. Their communication about appointments is always excellent and the practice is a warm and friendly place. Special mention for Catia who always goes above and beyond for every single customer to give them the best possible service. I highly recommend Platinum and the team, I recently moved further away from the practice but have absolutely no hesitation in remaining a patient there.
I found Platinum Dental Care after relocating while mid-way on an implant treatment. Dr Marios was very patient and diligent on making it all work to perfection. And Dr Patel was amazing at finding and fixing issues before they became a problem. The practice is full of the latest technology with 3D imaging and the best staff. The girls managing reception are very professional and very meticulous, helping you with the process.
For something important as oral health you want to go to the best place. And in London that's Platinum.
I was smiling when I walked in and left smiling when I walked out. Millie was professional, friendly and reassuring throughout the duration of my appointment. As a healthcare professional myself I really appreciated Millie's efforts to make sure I was okay throughout the procedure. Front desk staff were friendly and professional too. I would book here again without a doubt.
Sarika is the best dentist. I have been with her for 2 years and cannot be happier with my teeth now
Big Thank you for Ana at the reception to go out of her way to get an appointment. Thank you for Nadia to be fantastic. The place is 4.9 star on google for a reason.
Highly recommend this place. I've been to a few other private dental practices in London - Bloomsbury, London Bridge and Moorgate, but this place is my favourite and I'd recommend this practice for both check ups and hygienist visits. They are thorough with their explanations and won't rip you off. I had a quote from another practice, but Platinum (Harriet) confirmed work wasn't necessary. I had Nadia for my hygiene visit and she was great. She really took time to explain the issues and go through options to prepare me for the clean, which other practices have never done to that extent in all the years I've seen hygienists. I was offered numbing gel for the sensitive areas to be cleaned, which worked a treat.
Visited Yana the dental hygienist this morning. Brilliant service and lovely lady. Teeth squeaky clean and unlike some hygienists the procedure was not painful at all. Highly recommended.,
I would like to thank everyone from the reception team and also yana the hygienist and above all Dental surgeon Dr Ronak Patel who always gave the best treatment possible and is kind and friendly manner always made it a pleasure to attend the practice you will all be deeply missed if it wasn't for me moving out of London I would never have left such a great practice
Thank you all
Regards
I have been going here for a couple of years now and have found that their patient care is of the highest quality - including the front desk, my hygienist and my dentist, Dr. Kumar. I just had some restorative work done this year and the work was top notch. Price-wise they compare to other private clinics in the area. I was allowed to prepay for the major treatment in instalments which helped a huge amount.
Dr Ronak and Nadia Begum have been great since I've joined Platinum. They are very personable and do seem to really care. I feel in very safe and professional hands!
From making the appointment through to treatment the whole experience was beyond pleasant experience. The reception staff are very friendly and welcoming and Dr Sarika Shah is so polite and respectful. She had treated me with great dignity. I have never had such a thorough experience in a dentist. Dr Sarika Shah took her time to get to know me and talked me through the whole Invisalign treatment. I decided to have my bite treated at this practice because of the care that they provide but also their amazing flexible financial plans that makes it very affordable to anyone. Would definitely recommend this dental practice. First class service from Platinum Dental Care!
I have an unsightly chip on one of my front teeth from an accident in my teens. The original filling fell out 2 years ago, and I went to an NHS dentist that did a very rushed and poor quality job at patching it. Unsurprisingly, it didn't look or feel very nice, and also didn't last very long. I needed to have it restored again this year.
The dentist here (Dr Roni) was absolutely fantastic. He has done such a spectacular job. I can't see where the filling that he's used to restore my front tooth begins or ends, and it looks 100% natural. The colour and texture is matched so perfectly that one can only describe it as a work of art. In addition, both him and his assistant were very pleasant and comforting.
The reception team were also very helpful with getting me booked in, in spite of all of the Covid19 pressures and difficulties. I can't recommend this dentist enough - they are worth every penny.
Last year I made the decision to start Invisalign treatment with Platinum Dental and it is one of the best decisions I have ever made. From the initial consultation to completion of the treatment Dr Sarika Shah was amazing at guiding me through the whole process. Every step was explained concisely and left me feeling totally comfortable the journey I was on. My treatment lasted just over 6 months and I am incredibly happy with the results. Overall a great dental practice.
The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Dr Patel was excellent with his diagnosis and treatment.
I thoroughly recommend this practice.
