While no dental procedure is 100% comfortable, we try to minimize any discomfort you might feel. Many of our patients make statements like, "This wasn't even painful. How did you do that?" The following are some of the latest techniques we use to provide you with as comfortable an experience as possible:
Anxiety Control
Patient comfort is one of the most important aspects of care. Different patients have different needs for pain and anxiety control medication. Depending upon the procedure and your wishes, there are many medications we can prescribe.
Injections of Anesthesia
We use a topical anesthetic on your gums first to desensitize them and use The Wand, a computer driven system, to administer the injection very slowly and precisely to create a truly comfortable experience.
Sedation
For those patients who would feel more comfortable with sedation, we offer nitrous oxide and oral sedatives to help you relax during your treatment.
Your comfort is one of our primary concerns. If you have any questions about sedation, please do not hesitate to discuss these with us.
Patient Amenities
In order to create a relaxing and comfortable environment, we have equipped our office with the following features:
- Flat screen TV in our waiting room
- Relaxing music
- Headphones available for use during treatment
- Lumbar support pillows
- Memory foam pillows
Patient Safety
We adhere to the highest professional standards of cleanliness, sterilization, and radiation control. Our staff regularly attend safety seminars and are knowledgeable on the latest techniques.
