Ask Roger: Can hypnosis help me overcome my dental phobia?

Hypnosis for dental phobia works

Great question Tom and yes, hypnosis is proven to be very effective in overcoming dental phobia.

In fact, just last December 21, 2017, the Dental Tribune posted an article that said that “We were surprised that nearly all interventions were effective in reducing the psychological burden, and the majority of patients reported a decrease in anxiety. By far the best results were found in the use of hypnosis.”

This is just one of many studies that support hypnosis for dental phobia and other medical hypnosis uses.

I know all about dental phobia myself. As a teenager, my Dad took me to a dentist who had been right handed and had somehow lost his right hand. In its place was a big silver metal hook that reminded me of an ice hook.

He placed that hook in my mouth and held my tongue to the side as the hook dug into my cheek. He performed his dentistry with his left hand. My cheek hurt and it totally freaked me out. I had to go back to him once or twice more before I finally just refused to go.

I read a few months later that he had lost his license for having pulled the wrong tooth from some woman.

It was about 15 years before I ever ventured into another dental office. I got there thanks to hypnosis.

Today, my dentist laughs at me. He has said on more than one occasion, “Roger, I know the difference between hypnosis and sleep. I need you to stay awake and keep your mouth open.” That’s how relaxed I get.
