We know that many patients are apprehensive about receiving dental care.  In our office, we pride ourselves on our ability to make each patient as comfortable and relaxed as possible while receiving care.

First, we listen to your concerns.  We then discuss different methods for making you as comfortable as possible.  Together, we lay out a treatment plan that will meet your needs.  We have several options:

Anxiety Control Option
We offer you the option of oral medication to reduce anxiety.  This allows you to relax and have your dental care taken care of in a single appointment.

21st Century Technology
The WAND is an excellent example of our efforts to bring you the latest dental technology and to help you have a positive dental experience.  Whether injections make you nervous or not, the WAND helps us provide a more comfortable injection and the onset of anesthesia is often faster.  We may also be able to use new techniques so you will not experience the lingering  numbness of your tongues, lips, and face.

The computerized WAND provides a slow, steady flow of anesthesia so that you hardly feel the needle. It also delivers the anesthesia at an optimal flow rate for a comfortable injection.

Post - Treatment Comfort
We want you to be as comfortable as possible after your care.  We often send our patients home with a supply of non-narcotic analgesics to relieve any post treatment discomfort.  These include aspirin, acetaminophen and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as Ibuprofen.  For more involved procedures, a narcotic analgesic may be prescribed for you.  We will call to check on you after a long appointment.  And, we are always available by telephone if you have a problem or have a question or concern.
