I know for many of you there is a certain amount of dread when you receive the card reminding you that it is time again to have your teeth cleaned and checked. Most often that dread is because of the possible upcoming discomfort. Sometimes it is because of previous dental visits that did not go well. There are many things we can do to make your visit more comfortable, don't try and be brave and "tough it out!" Please let us know when you feel discomfort. Some of the options we can offer are:
- Desensitizing polish paste can be applied at the beginning of your cleaning. This helps many people that are sensitive when the ultrasonic scaler (this is noisy and sprays water) is used.
- Warming the water.
- Applying topical anesthetic if your gums are extra sensitive.
- Nitrous Oxide, Laughing gas is very effective for many people in reducing both anxiety and discomfort.
- Blankets are available if you feel cold.
- iPods are available and loaded with a wide variety of music for you to listen to.
These are some of the things we can do to help make your visit more comfortable. Regular cleaning appointments are also important to make your visits more comfortable. Smooth teeth free of rough calcium deposits are much easier for you to remove bacterial film or plaque from. It is the plaque that causes the gums to bleed and cavities to form.
During your cleaning we will remove hard calculus deposits and polish your teeth to smooth surfaces and remove the plaque. It is also our goal to observe any areas you are having difficulty cleaning and teach you how to more effectively clean them. So, when you receive that reminder card or call, come on in. Working together we will/can come up with a plan to lessen your dread and you can look forward to a beautiful healthy smile for a lifetime.

If most of us fear dental appointments, then we should always try what we can to take extra care of our teeth and maintain them better. That way, there will be less procedures done during appointments. :)
