A good percentage of our patients have dental anxiety and you definitely can see them. They are restless. They are sometimes shaking. They are cold. We have different methods to treat the anxiety. One will be two, pretty much through verbal comfort. Just to talk to them, to engage them in different conversations that are not related with dentistry. Another method will be to use the nitrous oxide, and that will pretty much take the edge off. And also we have here is CBD oil and we can offer that to the patients as well. Pretty much with all these methods, we can relieve the anxiety and make the patient more comfortable and more willing to receive the dental treatment.
