Get Help With Your Dental Fear

Happy patient with a dentist with thumbs up

Do you experience anxiety or fear when it comes to going to the dentist? You are certainly not alone. In fact, it is estimated that up to 20% of Americans suffer from dental fear in some degree. Fortunately, modern dentistry has eliminated many of the discomforts that have been associated with past dentistry techniques. However, it may not always properly address the psychological factors that surround dental anxiety. A part from a fear of pain from the actual procedure, many patients also suffer anxiety from the following:

  • Sound of dental drill
  • Severe gag reflux
  • Feeling of being confined
  • Smell of latex
  • Fear of needles

If local anesthesia is not enough to relieve your anxiety or fear, conscious sedation may be the best solution. Sedation dentistry is routinely used throughout many dental practices. It can take multiple forms, depending on the patient’s specific level of anxiety or fear. There is light, moderate and deep sedation. Patients may choose oral sedation, which involves taking a pill or sedative prior to your procedure. More commonly, patients choose sedation inhalation using Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas). Nitrous Oxide is a light sedation that is an ideal choice for many patients. It is safe for both adults and kids. Laughing gas allows patients to completely relax yet remain awake and even communicate with the dental staff if needed. Nitrous oxide sedation is administered through a nosepiece and its effects stop within minutes of removing the mask.

At Mitzi Morris, DMD, we proudly offer sedation dentistry throughout a wide range of procedures. If you are avoiding a routine dental cleaning due to fear or anxiety, please ask us about our sedation dentistry options. Using sedation dentistry is nothing to be ashamed about; however, poor dental care certainly can be. With today’s minimally invasive dental technology and favorable sedation dentistry methods, you have every opportunity to have a comfortable (and even enjoyable) visit to the dentist.

  • Dr. Morris is an excellent dentist. Her ability to relate to her patients makes her a stand-out amongst those in her profession. She practices dentistry with superior technique and care. Her staff is friendly, helpful, and accommodating. I feel she hires only the best! One special mention: I suffer from panic attacks at times- along with claustrophobia. Dr. Morris is the first dentist I have ever had who helped calm my fears. Thus, my experience exceeded expectations! Great service!

  • Definitely would recommend Dr. Morris to anyone. She has been my dentist for over 8 years! Dr. Morris is extremely personable and is serious about the completing the best care possible. Great established dental team! Very accommodating to your schedule.

  • Great and very educational experience. Compared to my last two dentists this experience blows them both out of the water. The staff is very friendly, and very helpful. I had to go in for a total of four visits a few weeks apart from each other. They made me feel very comfortable the entire time and kept making sure I was pleased. Getting a deep cleaning went very smoothly. It was also brought to my attention that the way I was flossing was incorrect. And have since changed methods. I worked specifically with Dr. Morris. She was very nice, and took the time to explain things. Which is a huge plus for me. Dr. Morris and the staff members worked effortlessly together. I was comfortable enough to sit back and relax, strangely enough, while having cavities drilled and fillings put in. Billing and scheduling appointments, as well as follow up for confirmation of upcoming appointments was very easy. I will say my favorite part of the experience was how friendly of an environment the staff has created. That alone is deserving of a 5 star review, and the rest is honestly icing on the cake. I highly recommend this practice on all fronts and will continue using them!

  • I transferred from a long-term and very good relationship with my former dentist because of a move, and I was a little apprehensive about a new dentist. Dr. Morris has been great. She is friendly, patient-concerned and the office is new, comfortable and clean. Everyone seems to enjoy working there. I feel like I'm in good hands!

  • Dr. Morris and her staff are very professional. Additionally, she as well as her staff have an excellent "bedside manner." The office is new and well equipped. If one has an appointment and an earlier one opens up, Dr. Morris offers it to her patients as she did with my last appointment.

  • I have never met a staff so nice and charming. This staff will make you feel comfortable and relaxed in Dr. Morris's Spa like office and everyone is professional and approachable too. Andrea R. explained the process of my appointment and procedures and is definitely a highly-educated and thorough dental hygenist -- SHE IS A ROCKSTAR. I'm so glad that Dr. Morris and her dental team have been my "go-to" for the last 5 years, and I wont be going anywhere else! Overall - A++ Dr. Morris...highly recommended to my family and friends!!!

  • I've been a patient of Dr. Mitzi Morris for many years, and recommend her without reservation. The office is modern. clean and spacious. The staff has always been welcoming and very helpful. And the women who work for her as dental technicians are fantastic; they do a professional and effective deep cleaning, but with a careful, gentle touch. It is clear to me that Dr. Morris reads her professional journals and upgrades her practice to stay very current with the latest best practices in dentistry. (I have had some dentists who stopped updating their practices after leaving dental school!) With Dr. Morris you can count on receiving the very latest dental technology. Her prices are very fair, and I have never been surprised by an unexpected cost or had problems with insurance not covering services rendered.

    Bruce C
  • I have never experienced an office so down to earth, so outgoing and so willing to satisfy. If you've grown to dread the dentist then lay down your sword and give this office a shot.
