It’s For My Partner, Dad, Son Boyfriend…
It’s almost every day that we get a phone call from a female, complaining of a broken tooth or a toothache, asking for treatment costs and appointment times. It’s only when we begin to make the booking that she usually says “ohh.. it’s not for me the dental appointment corio is for my partner/husband/boyfriend/son/dad/..” Why do men avoid getting help, and especially dental appointments?
5 Main Reasons Men Don’t Book Dental Appointments Corio
Well here are some ideas we have come up with over the years:
- FEAR!!! It’s hard for anyone to admit that they may feel anxious about something, and this is especially true for men. Some of the toughest, tattoo covered, Harley Davidson riding blokes are absolutely petrified of coming to the dentist.
- Head in the sand approach…the toothache will eventually go away….if I just wait long enough…I dont need that dental appointment corio
- Prices – most people believe that dental treatment is far more expensive than it actually is and feel embarrassed when they cannot afford it.
- No self-care; some people don’t consider teeth as a vital part of their health (until they lose too many and their quality of life is seriously deteriorated!).
- Embarrassment – majority of people feel very self-conscious to have their mouth/teeth looked at and feel that they will be judged or criticised.
All of the above are very real and valid reasons, but the problem is that, if they are not addressed, they only become more overwhelming.
