Consider NuCalm if You Suffer From Dental AnxietyMarlen Elite Dental Wellness

Consider NuCalm if You Suffer From Dental Anxiety

Is dental anxiety stopping you from regular check-ups to your River Edge dentist? It is normal to feel a little anxious or nervous, at times depending on the dental treatment you’re going to the dentist for.

However, if your fear is obstructing proper oral health and hygiene practices, then it’s time to consider NuCalm.

You’re Not The Only One…

As per a 2018 survey by DentaVox, over 60% of participants state they suffer from some kind of dental fear. In fact, four percent note they’ve never gone to the dentist. The largest percentage was afraid of pain, at 39%. Meanwhile, 24% of the respondents did not like the smell of chemicals, and 21% didn’t like the sound of the drill. Seven percent of those in the survey state they have dental anxiety around being stuck in the chair for too long. In addition, five percent were nervous about how long they have to keep their mouth open, while another five percent hate all the discomforts dentist appointments bring. Lastly, just over four percent of survey participants fear the dental bill at the end of the visit.

Whatever your reason for dental fear, it’s time to move past it. Not only for the sake of your oral health but overall health, too. Regular visits to the dentist offer plenty of benefits. That’s because check-ups and cleanings help battle plaque build-up, gingivitis, and gum disease. Your dentist can review early oral health issues before they turn into bigger ones. Finally, your dentist can also help offer advice, address concerns, and answer questions. When you procrastinate on dental visits, you are setting yourself up for future oral health concerns.

NuCalm – A Modern Solution For Dental Anxiety Relief

NuCalm is an organic three-part system that helps patients suffering from dental anxiety. It uses modern technology that allows you to destress and relax. If you don’t like the idea of sedatives and other stress-relief treatments, this is the best solution. After all, medications aren’t only unnatural, they can be unreliable. Some can offer uncomfortable side effects once the drugs wear off, as well. It’s never a good feeling to leave a dental office groggy or worn out. A mere dental visit wipes out any chance to tackle errands or work afterward. With NuCalm, you can leave your appointment feeling calm and at peace, so you can move on to the next thing on your to-do list.

NuCalm’s Three-Step System

Step 1: Here Comes The NuCalm Disc

First, your dentist helps organize the NuCalm Disc on the inside of your left wrist. This strategic placement focuses on a key acupuncture point. This organically triggers the relaxation responses in your brain because it interrupts your adrenaline response. Therefore, brain waves slow down, and you can start to relax.

Step 2: Enjoy the Music

Next, your dental team will give you an eye mask and headphones. Neuroacoustic sounds will start to play, which continues to slow down your brain wave function. NuCalm’s custom software offers specific sound frequencies to guarantee relaxation.

Step 3: Relaxation During Your Dental Visit

Finally, it’s time for your dental visit. With the NuCalm, you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your dental visit. Since the technology relaxes patients for hours, you’ll leave the office stress-free and ready to tackle your next daily adventure.

A Breakdown of How NuCalm Works

The entire process of NuCalm is simple. However, you may wonder “exactly” how it all works. First, they use technology that helps balance a person’s Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). ANS consists of two branches, the Parasympathetic Response (rest response) and the Sympathetic Response (stress response). NuCalm aims to decrease a patient’s stress response while increasing their rest response.

NuCalm’s “Biosignal Processing” discs release the neurotransmitter, GABA. This naturally neutralizes cortisol and adrenaline so that you can relax. Enhancing the relaxation chemicals in your brain, while reducing stressors, allows you to remain calm during your dentist appointment.
