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 Basingstoke, Chineham and Oakley 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 Basingstoke. 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 Basingstoke 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 01256 461888 for a chat and to find out how we could help you.

Easily the best experience I have had at a dental clinic. Kartik was very polite, patient and helpful. Every step of the process was explained to me with a concise plan of action put in place for future treatments.

My dentist listens and explains the procedure of the dental check, the Hygenist does the same. Both are very caring towards you as the patient.

The Dentist Emma, is always easy to converse with and puts me at ease, i am a nervous patient. I have built up confidence with her now. She even reassured me about a recent facial injury that i have had. Far superior to my GP. Thank you. The Hygenist, Amanda, explained thd new treatment fully, again very reassuring. It was far less uncomfortanle than thd old method.

Kartik is an absolute credit to the practice. I was feeling really anxious and worried, but he took the time to reassure me and made the whole experience feel calm and manageable. His kindness, understanding, and professionalism truly made a difference, and I felt completely at ease in his care. His assistant was also lovely, very friendly, welcoming, and professional. I am sorry I did not catch her name. Together they made what could have been a stressful visit feel so much easier.

I saw the hygienist, Mrs Amanda Byrne. She is very friendly and puts me at ease. The cleaning of my teeth is always really good. I would always recommend her
