Here at Appletree we believe that it`s extremely important to get your child use to the dentist from a very young age. This can help prevent any uncertainty and anxiety in the future. We recommend bringing your young ones along to your appointment with you as soon as possible so that they are able to get used to the surroundings and all of the different noises. All children under 5 are seen for free when you are a member! 🦷🍼
Are you someone that needs a later appointment due to a busy schedule or work commitments❔Then our late night Mondays are ideal for you! Every other Monday you will find us here until 7pm🕖
We love to hear your feedback! Another 5 star review from one of our patients! Thank you🤩
Are you a nervous patient❔ Here at Appletree we specialise in nervous patients✨
Some people may feel completely at ease when visiting the dentist and some may need a little more reassurance. Dental anxiety is something we manage on a daily basis here at Appletree Dental Surgery. It is more common than you may think and something we completely understand.
Here are 5 key tips which could help you at your next appointment 💙
🦷Let us know. We can put a note on your file so that we will be aware for future visits. Your dentist/hygienist will be happy to discuss any concerns you have about treatment.
🦷Your first appointment will simply be a check-up, having a chat with the dentist and them taking a look at your teeth and gums, so don’t worry that you’ll be launched into having treatment. See this first visit as your chance to get to know the dentist. If treatment is recommended we will discuss this with you first and we will give advice on what we think would be in your best interests, but there is no obligation to have the treatment done.
🦷You are in control, your dentist or hygienist will always ask you to raise your left hand if you want to stop at any time.
🦷We want you to feel comfortable. If you have a favourite radio station you would prefer to listen to let us know, we will be happy to put it on for you, or you can bring headphones to listen to music on your phone.
🦷We have stress balls in each surgery, if you would like to hold one during treatment please ask your nurse.
Why are we different?
You will be treated as an individual, have your concerns and needs carefully listened to and incorporated into your treatment at every stage. This all takes place in a pleasant and comfortable environment with all the benefits of the latest technology and friendly caring staff. We want to make Dentistry fun!
