Your comfort is extremely important
to us.
If you haven't been to the dentist in a while, you may be pleasantly surprised.
Our gentle approach to care will make your visit a positive
experience. Personalized care from our team of friendly and highly-trained professionals
can be surprisingly comfortable. Our new patients find themselves
quickly at ease with the gentle dental care they receive from our talented dentists.
Nitrous-oxide (laughing gas) is available, which is a gentle
relaxant. During treatment sunglasses are provided to deter light, provide safety
and place you in a more relaxed state of mind. You can watch television,
which is mounted in the ceiling for easy viewing to catch the news, sports,
or your favorite television show. We offer stereo headphones
for listening to the television or classical music CDs.
While you are in the chair, you are provided with a neck supporting
pillow and a fleece blanket to keep you warm if you
are cool. At the end of your treatment, we offer you a warm towel
so you are refreshed before leaving our office.
In our reception area, we offer a full refreshment bar with
ice cold bottled water, an assortment of hot Green Mountain coffee, hot chocolate,
tea selections, and freshly baked cookies.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to call us. We look forward
to a relaxed and pleasant visit with you.
Have a "Laugh" on us:
Nitrous oxide which is often referred to as laughing gas is a very effective
remedy for anxiety. Our patients feel calm and peaceful within minutes and can
immediately relax and enjoy watching their favorite TV shows or listen to the
music of their choice.
Nitrous oxide is also very effective in helping people with uncomfortable gag
reflexes. It is not only effective but very safe. After an appointment a patient
can safely drive themselves home or back to work without the after-effects that
most anti-anxiety medications have.
For those people that have anxiety the night before an appointment or have
trouble getting to the office without undo stress we can provide a simple and
effective prescription pill.
We offer the following items for your comfort:
CD Players with Headphones
Choose a music selection from our collection or bring one of your favorites
from home. Every room is also equipped with music headphones. Listen to our
own selections or bring along some of your favorite CDs. We also have Bose noise
cancelling headphones for those who want to enjoy the peace of silence during
their appointment.
