Relieving Your Dental Anxiety With Provo Sedation Dentistry

Hello Orem dental blog visitors, welcome to the Hammond Aesthetic & General Dentistry blog. We are Dr. Hammond and we specialize in cosmetic dentistry and dental crowns.

If you need root canal treatment and are worried about the pain you might experience or being able to get off of work for the multiple office visits to complete the procedure, be assured that painful root canals are a thing of the past with modern Utah dentistry.

With the latest technology and anesthetics, a root canal (endodontic treatment) is no more painful than receiving a filling. Most root canals can be completed in one or two short office visits.

Your anxiety can be diminished when you know what to expect. If you have been neglecting your teeth because of fears or concerns about a particular procedure and have not been to your Provo dentist recently, we encourage you to schedule an exam, cleaning, and consultation today. We are accepting new Orem dentistry patients at Hammond Aesthetic & General Dentistry.

At Hammond Aesthetic & General Dentistry, we offer invisible braces, fast teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, and all general and preventative dental procedures.

If you are interested in dental crowns or porcelain veneers, call us today to schedule an appointment.

Sedation Dentistry In Provo For Kids And Parents

At Hammond Aesthetic & General Dentistry we know that many Provo children fear going to the dentist. We are Dr. Hammond and we at Hammond Aesthetic & General Dentistry want to make your child’s first visit to our Provo practice a positive experience. Regular dental check-ups from toddler age are an essential part of oral hygiene.

Utah parents can follow these guidelines to help prepare their child for a dental visit.

1. Talk about the exam with your child. Answer any questions with uncomplicated answers.
2. Don’t share your bad dental experiences with your child.
3. Don’t imply that the exam will be painful.
4. Help your child understand that this is an important part of staying healthy.
5. Don’t offer a reward for visiting the dentist.

It is important for parents to make sure they aren’t anxious about Provo dental visits because children can sense their stress.

At Hammond Aesthetic & General Dentistry we have been treating children and adults since 1967. Our professional, friendly staff can calm the nerves of a fearful child and help them have a gentle dental experience.

If you or your Provo child has had a bad dental experience or is unable to stay calm while visiting the dentist, ask us about sedation dentistry. We want all of our patients to feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible while receiving excellent dental care.

For simple dental procedures topical anesthetics are applied to the gums and other tissues reducing oral sensation. If you require more sedation, nitrous oxide and general anesthesia are safe solutions.

Hammond Aesthetic & General Dentistry also offers complete smile makeovers which may include dental implants, teeth whitening, dental veneers, or any other cosmetic dental procedures required. All of these can be done with some type of sedation if required.

Don’t let your fears or your child’s fears keep your child from having a beautiful, healthy smile. Contact Hammond Aesthetic & General Dentistry today!
