Is there something about scheduling your dental visits with us that makes you feel a little bit frantic? Does the idea of coming in for care result in instant exhaustion but you’re not entirely sure why? If so, we think we may have some very helpful suggestions for you in regard to setting up appointments. For most patients, timing is everything! Learn more about what we mean and you just might start looking at dental care through a more optimistic lens!
Schedule When Kids Are Awake
If you schedule a dental visit for your kiddos when it’s about to be naptime, you’re going to be dragging some very cranky little ones into our practice. Instead, schedule care for the time of day when they’re happy and wide awake! It’s worth it.
Schedule When You Feel Most Relaxed
What time of day do you feel most relaxed? This is obviously different from the times you select for your children. If morning or afternoon includes less tension and anxiety, then remember this detail when you schedule your dental visit, so you can sit back and feel calm.
Schedule When You Have The Time
We know that when you set up a dental visit with us when you have a very tiny bit of open time in your schedule, it feels like you’re doing the “right thing.” However, if you feel panicked the entire time you’re visiting us, you may begin to feel negatively about your care. Instead, we encourage you to take a long hard look at your calendar. Find a day when you actually have more than enough time to spare (if possible) and schedule then for a relaxing experience.
Schedule Visits That Work For You
Feel free to discuss your visit with us over the phone, while you’re scheduling it, to ensure we find the date and time that will help you feel relaxed. Visit us for a dental checkup in Ankeny, IA by contacting Dental Impressions to schedule a visit at (515) 965-0230.
