I appreciate this may be a little odd..
But does it matter to you if there's windows in the treatment room!?
I'm not sure if this stems from my agoraphobia or fear of small spaces, but at my new practice there aren't any..
I noticed it the first time, but I figured I'd get used to it.
The second time I still noticed it and felt a bit trapped, possibly in part due to having work done.. but nonetheless I felt it raised my anxiety a little.
I have felt faint in the past and thankfully they opened a window for me which helped, obviously that's no longer an option and it plays on my mind a bit.
I don't want to keep looking for yet another dentist. She seemed quite thorough, not as vocal as I'd like.. long silences, no "you're doing really well" to help me along, not much said re the processes.. her work seemed ok though so I don't know how fussy to be!?
I saw another private dentist.. plenty of windows yet really didn't like his demeanor or much else enough to allow work to proceed.
Of course the dentist matters much more than a window (!).. but do things like that factor in your decision of where to go?
