We offer many comfort services. You know, we have a comfort menu that we take pride in where the patient can choose things that will hopefully help make their stay with us a little more enjoyable, whether it’s a blanket or a heated-up neck pillow, you know. So there are actual physical comfort items we offer. We also like to take pride in our staff being very understanding of the situation. And our staff are very level-headed and want to make sure that we can stay calm and present ourselves in a professional manner so that our patients can feel relaxed, not stressed, but we want to make sure that that atmosphere that they come into is something that they can be comfortable with.
Relax With Our Compassionate Treatment
You’ll appreciate our welcoming environment that prioritizes your comfort and peace of mind. Our team provides gentle care that will help you unwind. To reduce your dental anxiety, we offer two effective sedation options:
- Inhaled Sedation With Laughing Gas – This safe and reliable sedation method helps you feel calm while remaining conscious and responsive. The effects wear off quickly, allowing you to resume your normal activities right after your appointment.
- Oral Conscious Sedation – This option involves taking a prescribed sedative medication prior to your visit. You’ll remain awake but may feel sleepy or slightly groggy. You’ll need a trusted friend or family member to drive you to and from our office.
In addition to sedation, we also offer NuCalm, a patented relaxation method that combines neurophysiology, biochemistry, and physics. It will bring your mind into a natural state known as parasympathetic nervous system dominance to help you feel at ease in the dental chair. You can also take advantage of a comfort menu designed to help you feel at home. Be sure to ask our staff about it.
