What are the applications of hypnosis in dentistry? (cont.)
“Interestingly, it is not used that frequently for treating the actual phobia. This is because hypnosis works
extremely well with some people, but isn’t for everyone” -dental fear central.org-
“Hypnodentia also be applied to children. “Can be any age, even sometimes to the age of
the children was easier, because the critical level of adults do not like it. I behave like a
