LED screens used to soothe anxious patients

These installations have been made possible with funding from Oxford Health Charity. It uses donations from members of the public to enhance the experience of those using the services or working with the trust. Charitable donations are not used to fund NHS services.

The clinic specialises in dental care for children and adults who cannot be treated in general dental practice due to them having learning or physical disabilities; anxiety or phobia; mental health issues, or specific medical conditions such as patients with neurological conditions, including those who have had a stroke or have Parkinson’s disease. As a result, they may find going to the dentist particularly distressing, so trying to keep them calm is very important.
