We know that for many people, the thought of sitting in a dental chair can bring with it a wave of anxiety. That is exactly why we are hosting Beyond the Chair - a free evening event designed to help you feel calmer, more confident, and more in control of your oral health journey.
Taking place on Friday 26th June from 6:00pm to 8:00pm at Lady Bay Dental Care (NG2 5FW), this evening is a gentle, welcoming space for anyone who has ever put off a dental visit because of fear or worry. There is no clinical pressure here, just warmth, good company, and practical tools you can carry with you long after the evening ends.
Spaces are limited, so we do ask that you book in advance to secure your place.
The Evening
What to Expect
The evening is structured around three distinct sessions, each led by a specialist in their field. Together they create an experience that addresses both the mind and the body, because we believe the two are inseparable when it comes to feeling at ease in a dental setting.
45 minutes Anxiety Tools with Hypnotherapist Ruth Everitt
Ruth will guide you through an exploration of what makes dental visits feel so daunting, and share practical, evidence informed techniques to help you manage those feelings. You will leave with tools that are easy to apply in everyday life - whether you are sitting in a waiting room or simply feeling overwhelmed at any point during your day.
30 minutes Nourishing Refreshments with Hygienist Annie Raj
Enjoy carefully curated food and drinks chosen to nourish both mind and body. Annie will be on hand to chat through the fascinating connections between oral health and wider systemic wellbeing - a conversation that is as eye opening as it is reassuring.
45 minutes Guided Soundbath with Sound Healing Practitioner Fiona Harris
Settle in and allow therapeutic sound waves to wash over you in a deeply restorative session led by Fiona. Calming frequencies work to ease tension and quiet anxious thoughts, leaving you in a state of genuine, unhurried relaxation.
Please note - The soundbath session is not recommended for those with a pacemaker or metal object in any major organs, any hearing conditions (caution is urged for those with tinnitus), PTSD, epilepsy, a history of seizures, or those within the first trimester of pregnancy. If you have any concerns, please do get in touch with us before attending.
Our Approach
You Are Not Alone
Dental anxiety is far more common than many people realise, and it can have a real impact on how confidently you approach your oral health. At Lady Bay Dental Care, we work with patients every day to rebuild that confidence in a way that feels safe, manageable, and entirely at their own pace.
Beyond the Chair is an extension of that ethos. It is not a sales event or a consultation, it is simply an invitation to take one gentle step forward, in the company of people who genuinely understand what you may be feeling.
Whether you have been avoiding the dentist for months or simply want to feel more at ease at your next visit, this evening has been created with you in mind.
