How we help nervous patients through their visit to the dentist

We are specialists in helping nervous patients. Our highly qualified team know what it takes to get your mouth back to full health, and we’ll take the time and make the effort to make it as easy for you as possible. Here’s how –

  1. We let you choose your lead dentist – Both Pilar and Nacho are really patient and kind, but we find that some patients prefer dealing with women, and others prefer dealing with men, so we put that choice in your hands.
  2. We take time to talk about your fears, your experience with dentists in the past, your pain and problems that you’re experiencing with your teeth. Spending time with you enables us to understand you better and tailor your treatment, but also allows you to get used to us and the environment before we start the treatment.
  3. We discuss the treatment plan and let you make the decisions. Being out of control is scary, so we take the time to talk you through our treatment plan. We tell you about alternatives when they are available and also discuss costs and time frames, so you know what you’re signing up to.
  4. We offer sedation – Unfortunately, people who are scared of the dentist often leave it so long before they come to see us that things have got really bad. This means that we often need to do very invasive procedures such as extractions and implants. These take time and can cause nervous patients a lot of stress, so we offer sedation. Our sedation specialist is Ignacio Duran Leardi, a Doctor and intensive care specialist, with 30 years’ experience working in Marbella and Gibraltar. He is also head of his department at the Quiron Hospital in Marbella, so you know you are in very safe hands.
  5. We understand your fears – It is our job to make you feel comfortable and take away your fears as much as possible. We will not make you feel silly about being scared. We will keep checking if everything is OK and offer to stop if you’re feeling stressed. We know that often these fears are based on very traumatic experiences, so we will never belittle them. We will try to understand what exactly is making you nervous and do everything in our power to remove this problem.
