Taking the fear out of going to the dentist

Are you hesitant to visit the dentist? Afraid? Putting it off? You’re not alone.

According to a recent survey, more than 60 percent of people worldwide suffer from “dental fear.” In fact,

4 percent of people have never visited a dentist.

The reasons are many, including the fear of pain, the sound of the drill, or even the cost of the procedure. But have no fear — Dental Health Partners in Cedar Rapids is your partner in protecting your dental health.

At Dental Health Partners, they find that one of the best ways to ease fears is through education — because knowledge is power.
