At which points in the dental care process can virtual reality be introduced to reduce stress levels, distract from clinical tools, and support better emotional control before and during procedures?

Dentists integrate VR at multiple stages of treatment, from initial consultations to complex procedures, to help patients stay calm and focused. Many practices now utilize virtual reality for reducing dental anxiety, as explained at https://villagedentalmedicine.com/virtual-reality-for-reducing-dental-anxiety/, providing immersive experiences that distract from clinical tools, lower stress, and support emotional control. This approach enhances patient comfort and encourages a more positive attitude toward dental care.
