According to Colgate.com, approximately 9 to 15 percent of Americans fail to visit a dentist as they suffer from a dental phobia, and this works out to 30 to 40 million Americans. Some report they fear pain during their dental treatment, with others stating they don't like the feeling of helplessness they experience when in the dental chair. The closeness of the dentist as he or she does the work also accounts for some individuals avoiding the dentist. Regardless of why one experiences this fear, FeatherSound Smiles, a Restorative, Implant and Clearwater Cosmetic Dentist, can be of help.
