Dentists Focusing on Comfort
Someone says, what's the first word you think of when I say -
Dentist!
What word comes to mind? Is it Comfort? Probably not, if you're like most of us.
But in recent years the dental world has been changing enormously, in technology and in patient care.
/Dental PR News/ - ALBANY, NY, October 27, 2006 - Gone are the days -
- of the hard chair in the waiting room with 3 out-of-date magazines on an end table, and a long wait - followed by the needle, the loud drill, the stiff neck muscles and the icky pink water.
Instead, how about some amenities:
· Hand and feet warmers
· Lap blankets
· Virtual-reality DVD goggles and a flat-screen satellite TV mounted on the ceiling
· A CD library with wireless headphones
· Warm, scented guest towels
· Juices, herbal teas and bottled water as well as coffee and black tea
And someone to welcome you:
· A new-patient counselor, who takes time to listen to your concerns, discuss possibilities, and help you arrive at a dental plan
· This counselor cannot only describe, but also demonstrate with models such new techniques as Zoom! Whitening, porcelain veneers, and dental bonding
Rather than just rushing off to the dentist during your work day, to get an urgently needed single item, such as a filling or a crown, you can sit with a knowledgeable person, take all the time you need, ask all your questions, and based on a full understanding of the options, arrive at an over-arching dental plan.
In pleasing office d cor
No more flat gray-white walls, harsh lighting, musak, and a plastic aspidistra in the corner. Dentists now like to use:
· Relaxing, subtle colors
· Indirect, pleasing lights
· Attractive artwork
· Live and well-cared-for greenery
Breeze through with ease - Sedation dentistry
If you're someone who fears going to the dentist, it's time to try sedation dentistry. The sooner you obtain that dental care, the less dental care you'll need to obtain. We have just the one set of teeth, and with the spectacular advances in dental technique, we can easily keep them in good health for our lifetime.
If you opt for sedation dentistry:
· An oral medication is given, such as Valium (sometimes it's given by injection or IV)
· Laughing gas can also be given (nitrous oxide)
· A local anesthetic blocks any pain
You'll be drowsy and comfortable and dimly aware of your surroundings. When you awake, you'll find hours of dental work are finished. You'll have little or no memory of the whole visit and your teeth will be in excellent shape.
· Some people find that after one session of sedation dentistry, their fear is permanently reduced or even completely gone
A good cosmetic dentist has your well-being and comfort in the forefront of his or her mind. Along with individual counseling, and making you comfortable, an up-to-date dentist can apply a plethora of modern technologies to beautify your smile in a pleasing and comfortable setting.
