A Crown, A Veneer…And a Facial?
Dental anxiety is a serious problem. Millions of Americans
put off needed dental work out of fear of the pain and discomfort they expect
to experience at their dentist’s office. Well, a Fort Lauderdale, Florida
dentist came up with a unique solution: offer spa services.
Yes, according to an ABC News report, Florida dentist April
Patterson recently started offering services like massages, eyelash extensions
and facials at her office, all in an effort to relieve the anxiety and fear
experienced by many of her patients.
It’s a unique solution to an ever-present problem, but
fortunately most dentists are able to alleviate your worries and reduce
pain and discomfort without resorting to spa services. Advances in the
field of sedation dentistry allow cosmetic dentists to put you into a state of
relaxed, responsive painlessness as they perform the procedures.
Sedation dentistry is especially useful when undergoing a smile
makeover, as it allows your cosmetic dentist to finish more procedures in
one sitting than usual.
Dentists have other ways of ensuring your experience is as
painless as possible. Many dentists are now using lasers instead of scalpels to
work on gums, air abrasion instead of drills to handle relatively shallow cases
of tooth decay and a computer controlled device called “The Wand” which can inject
anesthetic into a single tooth with little risk of human error.
