Aquariums at Kreativ Dental

Based on scientific studies, aquariums have a calming effect on people, said Attila Knott. Therefore, that is why we have even 3 of them at Kreativ Dental Clinic. Two of them are fresh water aquariums and third one the biggest is cylindrical shaped with salt water. Besides these 3 aquariums, we have a little pond in the garden with African perches in. During the winter they go down 1 and half meter deep and there stay through the end of the winter.

In 1984 dr.Katcher applied the calming effect of the aquariums in his dentist’s surgery. He was an eager dentist who noted down that after he put an aquarium in his room the patients were not so scared. - said Attila Knott.

In the course of further monitoring it turned out that those patients who were hypnotised and had watched aquariums felt the same beneficial effect in both cases. But in some cases the aquarium turned out to be more efficient.

Other studies tell that those patients who were watching an impressive aquarium full with wonderful fish before the treatment called for less pain-killer.

Unfortunately involving animals in different treatments are not well-known in Hungary and most doctors thinks of the guide-dog at best if this topic is mentioned. But in our clinic we use animal therapy methods because we believe that it is an efficient way of reducing stress and fear. - explained Attila Knott.

It happened to me many times that after certain hard-working days I realise that I am just sitting in front of the aquarium admiring the fish while they are swimming back and forth through the maze of the plants and rocks. This time I am so amazed and it can relax me totally. - said Attila Knott, manager at Kreativ Dental.
