Nervous patients

Whatever your negative dental experiences, with our help you can leave your fears where they belong: in the past. With refined care and expertise we’ve been helping patients throughout Portsmouth and Farlington manage their fear of the dentist for many years - we can do it for you too.

It’s important that you look after your oral health. Your lifestyle, psychological well-being and dental health depend on it. If you continue to avoid the dentist, this can lead to severe, perhaps irreversible, damage.

So, take the first step. Work with us. Tell us everything. In detail. We understand the panic. The sweaty palms. The rumbling tum. The unsteady legs. The tears. We also know how to ease these symptoms. As your confidence grows, they will disappear for good.

No pressure—you are in control

What does and doesn’t happen is up to you. You do not have to do anything out of your comfort zone.

Why not start with driving by Envisage Dental. You don’t have to do any more than this for starters. We have a beautiful practice with a calm, friendly, family vibe, which you will discover if you come in and say hello. Why not bring a friend or a family member?

We are happy to chat

This is your chance to tell us why the dentist gives you the heebie-jeebies—we will understand. Sit down and have a cuppa or two on the house.

Our staff are happy to discuss your concerns. We are trained, qualified and experienced in dental phobias. If this is enough, leave and have a think.

Meet the team—tour the premises

If you are ready for the next step, you can meet the Envisage Dental team. All of us. Putting faces to names can help to break down barriers. As does understanding our systems and processes, our treatments and technology.

You get to know us. We get to know you. Have a guided tour of the building. Ask as many questions as you like.

Choose your dentist

Getting to know you means we get to play matchmaker. Partnering you with the dentist we feel is the most sympathetic to your personality and individual requirements. But, if you have a preference, we are happy to oblige!

Your first dental health assessment

Comfy chair, feet up, music in the background. We are happy to tailor the tunes to your taste. Or you can bring your own music and headphones and zone out to your favourites while we check your dental health. It doesn’t take long and is painless. We can stop at any time if you need a break.

Your first dental treatment

This can be as simple and pain-free as polishing your teeth or a sealant filling. You won’t feel a thing and will walk tall when we’ve finished. And don’t forget the music!

If you need a course of treatments, we plan these close together. This means you don’t have the time to fret and undo all the good work that has got you this far. Take the first step today…why not give us a call on 02392 380822 for a chat and to find out how we could help you.

As I am disabled the whole team really make sure my appointment is as easy as possible. I often received help opening the front door, and am met by the receptionist, sometimes while I am walking up the path. All appointments have been scheduled to the downstairs surgery including Hygienist ones. I am always met with friendliness and courtesy by everyone. Any procedures are expertly carried out, and I feel safe and listened to.

I was over visiting my boyfriend and had a tooth pulled a week prior. I was still in a lot of pain and wanted to get it checked out so I rang for an emergency appt. I got in the same day and saw Dr Bailey. She was amazing and fixed me right up. The following day I went back to double check the clot was still in place and she was so reassuring. Cannot recommend them enough everyone in the practice is so lovely.

Everyone was so understanding of my fears, cannot fault the way I was treated, much as I hate going to the dentist and I know I have to have an extraction, I am less worried than before because I felt understood and respected. Brilliant team of people, thank you

Rachel Tregenna

Very good. I asked about whitening possibilities and then dentist went over every option with me, going from the lowest level and the least invasive to the highest. She asked the hygienist to give my teeth a thorough clean and we would go from there. There was no pressure to have any expensive treatment at all. The hygienist was the same, just gave me the options and some advice and left it up to me.
