Nervous patient care Harley Street, London W1
Relax – you’re in safe hands
If you are anxious about visiting the dentist, you’re not alone – around a quarter of the UK population share your fears.
For most people, dental phobia results in nothing more than a racing pulse and sweaty palms. But for others, the fear can be enough to deter them from seeking desperately needed treatment.
Wherever you are on the scale, rest assured that the phobia-friendly team at Harley Street Dental Studio can help you put aside any nerves. We offer a comfortable and relaxed experience that’s unlike any other dentist you’ve experienced.
Our gentle approach to nervous patients is what makes us one of the country’s top clinics for treating dental phobics – and it’s also helped us achieve Phobia Certified status.

Dr Mark Hughes is amazing. From the initial video consultation to my first meeting, he explained everything really simply. He was super thorough, using imagery to show me what he was seeing and also to check that it was the stuff I was concerned about. A thorough review of my dental history and x-rays meant that he gave me a treatment plan that he discussed would help me achieve my goals. Am looking forward to getting started!

They try their best to look after your teeth without doing too many operations, which is good.

I contacted Harley St Dental Studio as I required some emergency dental treatment. The service and care I received from the outset was first class. I was given an appointment straight away and once at the Dental Studio I was dealt with in a caring and professional manner with options and explanations given at every stage of the treatment. I’d highly recommend Adam, Adi, Michael and the rest of the team there if you are looking for professional, efficient and attentive service in a state of the art practice. I will most definitely be back for routine checks in the future.

As soon as I stepped in the building I felt that I was in good hands, everyone is professional and welcoming. I had my appointment with Mr Khafaf and I can honestly say I left his office feeling at ease regarding all my treatment plan, professional, knowledgeable, kind and so ensuring that i am in the right hands . Sangita printed all my treatment plans and explained what is going to be the next step,she was very helpful and friendly.

Nervous patient FAQs
How does treatment for nervous patients differ from ordinary treatment?
We let you set the pace of treatment and we’ll talk with you at length about how to make your visit more pleasant. We may opt to use strategies like hand signals when you want to take a break and we can also offer no-drill dentistry and gentle sedation.
Is it OK to bring a friend with me?
Yes – if it makes you feel more comfortable. Lots of our nervous patients bring their friends along.
Is there anything else I can do to make treatment more bearable?
Whatever helps you to feel relaxed is OK by us. Some patients like to listen to music while others perform breathing exercises. It’s up to you!
Will I have treatment at my first appointment?
Not if you don’t want to. Sometimes it’s better to take a look around the facility and get used to the sights and sounds of the clinic before jumping into the chair.
