Many people are afraid to visit the dentist, and here at Guiney Dental Clinic, we want to change this! We have worked hard to create a practice that is welcoming and friendly, and we take care to make your visit a pleasant experience. Part of this is challenging the expectation of worry and pain that some people have, and turning a visit to the dentist into a fun experience!

Have you ever attended a dental appointment and taken a selfie with your den-tist? Many people catalogue aspects of their daily lives via social media but posi-tive images of a visit to the dentist are still rare. We want to challenge this by in-viting you to take a selfie with your dentist or dental hygienist, and we hope this will help others to see that dental care doesn’t have to be scary.

Why A Selfie At The Dentist Is A Great Idea:

  1. It is fun! Let’s face it, we could all use some more fun in our lives and if taking the fear factor out of a dental
    visit is achieved by taking or seeing a selfie at the dentist, we think that’s a great thing! Contribute to increasing the fun and reducing the fear
    by sharing your selfie with your friends, es-pecially anyone who is afraid to see their dentist.
  2. It encourages children. Children are often wary of visiting the dentist and seeing you enjoy your visit can help to put
    them at their ease. Allow them to take their own selfies with the dentist to show how easy their visit has been, and to remind them of this the next
    time they are worried about a visit.
  3. It’s healthy. Taking care of your teeth and gums is something to be cele-brated, so this selfie should take pride of
    place alongside your photos of yourself at the gym or working out. You should feel proud of the efforts you make to keep your teeth and gums healthy,
    and sharing a selfie to remind yourself and others of this can help
  4. Treat gum disease. Untreated gum disease can cause serious problems for dental health, and the risk of developing this
    becomes greater as you age, especially if you have diabetes. Talk to your dentist if you are con-cerned about your gums.
  5. It shows off your smile. Protecting your teeth and gums is all about main-taining a great smile, and we think that’s
    a very important thing to share! Reap the rewards of your commitment to your dental health with a beauti-ful white grin, and share it with the world to
    make the most of your efforts!
