Pain Management
Because many of our dental treatments are simple and pain-free, we do not recommend medication for certain minor procedures. Thanks to modern technology, procedures such as soft tissue removal has morphed from a scalpel-guided surgery to a quick and painless laser treatment (WaterlaseTM). Tooth decay can now be removed without drilling if detected early through a technique called Air Abrasion (Drill-less Dentistry). With our use of state-of-the-art equipment, many of our treatments have become streamlined for efficiency, safety, comfort and precision. The dental treatments of today are far less painful and more comfortable than those of the past.
We use a topical anesthetic as well as localized anesthetic when warranted, and if you are extremely sensitive to pain, you always have the option of oral medication. Nitrous oxide is also available to alleviate anxiety and inhibit pain receptors.
