If you feel anxious about visiting the dentist, you’re not alone. It’s estimated that around 13% of people in the UK avoid regular dental appointments due to fear. At Atrium Dental in Camberley, we believe no one should feel afraid of getting the care they need.
Our team regularly treats nervous patients, and we understand how real dental phobia can be. Whatever your concerns, we’ll listen carefully, explain each step, and go at a pace that feels right for you.

Friendly, Reassuring Team – our aim is to create a calm environment where you feel safe and cared for.
For patients who need additional help, we can arrange intravenous (IV) sedation with our visiting sedationist. This is particularly useful for:
Patients with severe dental anxiety
Longer or more complex procedures
Those who have had difficult experiences in the past
With IV sedation, you’ll feel deeply relaxed but still conscious, and most patients remember little of the treatment afterwards.
