Sonic Smile
Back in 2017, a dentist friend of mine, Paul Pantiru, was visiting Bali and he approached me with an idea to help his fellow colleagues at work deal with the ever increasing issues of dental patients with anxiety before treatment. He wanted to collaborate, and I was excited to not only create a dental patient anxiety stress relief protocol, but, thinking like any good healing practitioner, to also support the dentist and his team, e.g. receptionist, dental hygienist, and other dentists by giving them a way of dealing with their stress levels at work too, so we set to work! We aimed to launch in the UK in the Autumn of 2017, but due to my other teaching commitments, we ran out of time to truly give it the launch it deserved, so the whole project got put on hold.
Fast forward to 2020. Then excitingly at the end of last year, I was approached by GHP Magazine who host the Oral Health & Dentistry Awards every year, and despite us not having launched this exciting new healing protocol, I had kept the Sonic Smile website up, and they amazingly found us online and we received an award for the Best Online Dental Patient Anxiety Relief Service. Such an honour to receive this!
So I took this as a great nudge from the Universe to make this the next online course that I produce, and I’ve finally had some time and space to bring it to the world and made it even better than it was before! More than ever, stress levels are at an all time high so having an innovative sonic technology like tuning forks to quickly, safely and effectively treat dental patient or dental team anxiety/stress at a deeper level gives dentists a new string to their bow, by offering a holistic treatment that can make for happier patients and also bring those dentists up to 35% extra income from all those lost patient appointments!
Did you know?
According to research, anywhere between 50 and 80% of adults in the United States have some degree of dental anxiety, ranging from mild to severe. More than 20% of dentally anxious patients do not see a dentist regularly, and anywhere from 9 to 15% of anxious patients avoid care altogether. Research has also shown possible correlations between dental anxiety, missed appointments, avoidance of care, and a greater need for more extensive treatment.
