Not taking your child for dental treatment due to fear of inconvenience.
Anxiety is quite common in children during the visit to the dental clinic, and there could be multiple reasons. In most cases, children might fear visiting new places, meeting new people (dentist), and letting them examine their mouth. In addition to that, the clinic’s environment also impacts the behavior; your child may fear multiple lights focusing on them, they may associate it with the ideas of dental injection and pain within their imagination.
Don’t worry; it is not uncommon. We have seen many children having fear while visiting us for dental treatment. This uneasiness, anxiety, and fear are common. The dentist and staff at Vanilla Smiles are specially trained and experienced in making your child’s visit to the dental clinic fearless and painless.
Vanilla Smiles is no Tear Painless Pediatric Dentist in Pune.
At Vanilla Smiles, we practice multiple behavior management strategies for a pleasant experience during the clinic visit. Sedation dentistry is one of the way to achieve this.
Laughing Gas
The use of laughing gas is the safest method in sedation dentistry. During the treatment, we place a mask on your child’s nose and let them breathe through it. The mask delivers the mix of oxygen and laughing gas in a certain ratio. It helps in relaxing your child during the dental treatment and gets rid of anxiety completely.
Oral Sedation
The other method to achieve this is the use of oral sedation. In this technique, we use certain medications administered orally to make the dental treatment fearless. Your child will become a little drowsy but remain awake during the treatment.
Intravenous Sedation
Clinic Environment
Apart from sedation dentistry, we have other factors too at our clinic, which help the child cope with the anxiety. Our clinic is equipped with a play area with toys, books, and multiple activities, which helps the child mingle with the environment and reduce fear of being at the new place.

The staff at Vanilla Smile is specially trained to manage child’s behavior and make their treatment comfortable enough. If you are delaying the dental treatment due to fear and anxiety in your child, we can help. Remember delaying treatment can impacts your child’s oral health severely.
