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 Hanley, Tunstall, Newcastle-under-Lyme and Stoke-on-Trent 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 Newcastle Dental Practice. 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 Newcastle Dental Practice 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 01782 616178 for a chat and to find out how we could help you.

Great communication and I feel fantastic treatment.

18th January 2025

Going to the dentist is one of my worst fears, so being able to go to Newcastle has the least trauma for me. Everyone are so friendly understanding and treat me with the most respect and kindness that I feel only the slightest nervousness attending the clinic

17th January 2025

All staff are welcoming, I feel safe and confident that treatment I receive is the best to suit my needs. Everything is explained clearly

Excellent service

17th January 2025

I have used both private and NHS dentists in the past but appointments have always felt rushed and I’ve not really felt informed. I’ve had a few terrible experiences which really made me nervous to attend appointments. My experience at Newcastle every time in the last 2 years is completely the opposite to this. Both the dentist and hygienist allow time to fully explain both what is going on with my teeth and gums but also what I need to be doing between visits. I have already recommended Newcastle to friends and family especially if they are nervous about visiting the dentist.

Very welcoming staff. Warm and friendly. None judgemental. For someone as nervous as me, I was put at ease and didn’t feel as though I was being told off or laughed at for my teeth. I went there to improve them and they offered me the care and advice I needed

I have been on the denplan for around a year and find all the reception staff, dentist and hygienist so welcoming. My dentist always takes the time to explain any potential problems and gives me his recommendations on how to avoid any future dental problems. I really appreciate it!
