How can we help you?
We firmly believe that there is no such thing as a silly question, so we welcome any and all of them from our patients. For your convenience, we have included some of these that we regularly hear on this page. But if your question isn’t answered, please give us a call or bring it to your next scheduled dental booking.
We look forward to helping educate you on your oral health.
Dental Anxiety
Whereas some dental surgeries simply offer sedation dentistry to help calm anxious patients, our Mirrabooka, WA dental clinic takes another approach that is more about relationship-building. Dr Peter Duke is a firm believer that much of dental anxiety lies in the unknown—not only the unknown about the procedure but about the team of dental professionals who will be performing it.
To that end, Dr Duke is happy to talk with anxious patients before they even come into the dental surgery. With a telephone call, he believes he can get to know potential patients better, can explain the procedures and can help to waylay most of the anxiety.
Unique Approach to Dental Anxiety in Mirrabooka
Getting to the root of the dental anxiety issue to overcome the anxiety is an exceptional approach, to be sure. This unique system is well-suited to Dr Duke’s compassionate, caring and outgoing personality. When patients finally come in for their first appointment, they generally find that his excellent ‘chairside’ manner enables him to put them at ease.
