Dental Anxiety

Freedom From Dental Anxiety!

Do you have anxiety about going to the dental office? You are not alone. Many people experience mild to severe anxiety before and during dental appointments. One of our goals is to make pain, fear and anxiety a thing of the past when going to the dentist. We want to eliminate your fears so we can help you achieve a beautiful healthy smile.

We offer nitrous oxide and oral sedation to any patient who has anxiety about their dental appointment. Nitrous oxide or laughing gas provides many patients with a calm relaxed feeling. Other patients may prefer oral sedation. With a single dose of an oral medication we can easily and safely perform all procedures while you are in a state of deep relaxation. We have many patients that have made dental anxiety a thing of the past through nitrous oxide and oral sedation. If you feel you might benefit from these services, give us a call. We would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

Also, our staff is trained in pain management techniques. We do our best to assist you so that your visit is comfortable and safe. We provide our patients with numbing pre-anesthetic gel to relieve 98% of the discomfort of dental injections. This gel can also be used through all hygiene procedures to make sure your dental cleanings are comfortable.

We are proud that we provide guilt free dental care. We will not lecture you about anything including putting off dental care. We will listen to your concerns without judgment. We promise!
