Frequently Asked Questions about Hypnosis in Dentistry

Why should I consider hypnosis?

If you are interested in exploring a different way to conquer dental fear and anxiety that will find solutions to self-sabotaging, negative or limiting beliefs or to create a sense of peace and harmony that allows you to tackle challenges more positively, hypnosis could be a great tool for you.

What is hypnosis?

It is a natural state that we undergo frequently, if not daily, but goes unnoticed. It is not what you see in films or on TV.

Is hypnosis safe?

Yes, there is no danger with hypnosis. You cannot get stuck. You are in complete control the entire time, and no, you will not say or do anything that you don’t want to or that goes against your principles.

How does hypnosis work?

While you are under hypnosis, your conscious mind and body are relaxed, and the subconscious mind is in a heightened state of activity, allowing it to receive positive suggestions.

Am I sleeping while under hypnosis?

No. You are not asleep. You are fully capable of talking and moving, and you remain in complete control of your faculties. You are simply in a relaxed and enhanced state of focus.
