The Dental Button is a device that literally gives control back to the patient. By pushing a button, patients can stop the power supply to the dentist’s hand piece and therefore immediately stop dental treatment at any time.

The team at the Berkeley Clinic are continually striving to offer the best possible care for people who suffer from dental anxiety. We understand how difficult it can be for many people to even hear the word ‘dentists’. Dr. Mike Gow uses various phobia management techniques to help with these fears and it is very common that our patients, who visit us with dental anxiety, eventually are completely relieved of their fears.

If you suffer from dental fear please arrange a consultation with Dr Michael A. Gow BDS (Gla) MSc Hyp (Lon)
President of The British Society of Medical & Dental Hypnosis (Scotland)

The British Dental Association stated a few years ago that ‘one adult in three has moderate to severe fear of dental procedures’.

Dr Mike Gow Clinical Director of  Dental Anxiety Management was approached to write a chapter for a new book called ‘The Fearful Dental Patient’  by Arthur Weiner (ed), published by Wiley Blackwell.

This fantastic book is going to print soon and will be available in book stores across the UK  early 2011.
