I<\/span>ts the start of another new year. I guess like me you probably begin again with resolutions about being a better human being, taking more exercise, eating more healthily etc etc Which one will you make stick this year? For me last year it was to return to regular exercise. I was certainly not perfect but finished 2011 a lot fitter than I started it.\u00a0 So to this year……what resolution will you make a reality?<\/p>\n

At the end of last year I asked everyone who has taken our 7 Day Beat Your Fear<\/a> e-course for some feedback on it. I was quite humbled and overwhelmed by the number of people who took the time to reply sometimes in great detail about their experiences after taking the course.<\/p>\n

What did I discover?\u00a0\u00a0 Well nearly 75% of all people who took the course said it made it easier or made them more likely to book a dental appointment.\u00a0 Many people said that it really helped them to get specific about what their dental fears were and in doing so they developed an even deeper understanding of their problem.<\/p>\n

There were suggestions that we should record some videos and make those a part of the course, this is a work in progress ( see previous\u00a0blog postings\u00a0) and there were a few requests for direct 1 to 1 e-mail or telephone support for people taking the course. We hope to introduce these things\u00a0 during this year.\u00a0 For people local to us<\/a> there were also request for an open night which is something that we try to do at least once every year. Watch this space!<\/p>\n

There were some request for contact and support that extended beyond the original 7 day course too, we generally don’t want to make a nuisance of ourselves in your inbox but have taken this on board.<\/p>\n

I am really fortunate to\u00a0work with a great team at Craigentinny Dental Care who constantly innovate and generate new ideas. One of our goals for this year is to continue to improve and develop\u00a0the\u00a0care we provide for nervous and phobic patients and \u00a0the e-course too. \u00a0The feedback and questionnaire replies are all fuel toour thought process and \u00a0will play a big part in this so once\u00a0again thanks if you took the time to reply.<\/p>\n

Finally\u00a0I would like to record my gratitude to the lovely people behind DentalFearCentral<\/a> who were responsible for a significant number of people discovering the e-course that otherwise would not.<\/p>\n

If we can help you to beat your dental fear in any way do not hesitate to get in touch via the main web site for our dental practice in Edinburgh.<\/a><\/p>\n

Here is\u00a0a happy, healthy and stress free\u00a02012.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
