Dental Anxiety? Here’s what helped me recently…

Dental Anxiety - it’s incredibly common, but what if you also have POTS? Here are some things that helped me recently when I had to suddenly get several dental procedures…
*Communicate about your anxiety with the dentist - let them know your triggers!
*let them know you benefit from a patient, compassionate, calm presence in the room
*Let them know you have POTS and want a job epinephrine based numbing solution
*Use the gas! It helps considerably
*Ask for a blanket to keep you warm and give you something to hold on your hands
*Listen to music
*Taking breaks when needed to recollect yourself
*Asking to avoid bite blocks and taking great care with bitewings
