A common cause of stress among dental patients is the patient's fear of losing control in face of the "helplessness provoking" dental situation. Although hypno-relaxation and hypnosis serve as efficient tools to aid in the administration of dental treatment to such patients, some of them may view hypnosis as a further relinquishing of control to the hypnotist and thus resist hypnotic induction, despite their willingness to try to use hypnosis for therapeutic reasons. To avoid this resistance, a "self-control" induction method is suggested that enables the patient to remain in control throughout the process. This technique minimizes the threat of losing one's autonomy and thus enables treatment of these patients.
牙科患者压力的一个常见原因是，患者担心在面对“引发无助感”的牙科治疗情况时失去控制。尽管催眠放松和催眠是帮助此类患者接受牙科治疗的有效工具，但其中一些患者可能会认为催眠是进一步将控制权交给催眠师，因此尽管他们愿意出于治疗原因尝试使用催眠，但仍会抵制催眠诱导。为避免这种抵触情绪，建议采用一种“自我控制”诱导方法，使患者在整个过程中保持控制权。这种技术将失去自主性的威胁降至最低，从而能够对这些患者进行治疗。
