Anxiety-Friendly Dentistry
Nervous about the dentist? You are not alone. We offer laughing gas and sedation options, and our team is trained to keep every visit calm and comfortable. We take time to explain each step, and we never rush you. Let us know about your concerns when you book so we can plan your visit around them.
Protecting Your Teeth from Grinding and Sports
Grinding or clenching your teeth, often during sleep, can cause jaw soreness, headaches and wear on your teeth. A custom night guard can help protect them. A custom sport guard protects your teeth during sports. Our page on night guards and sport guards explains how they work.
Modern Tools
We use digital x-rays for clear images with less radiation than traditional film. Ask us whether a laser might be suitable for your treatment, and read about dental lasers.
When to Ask About Grinding or Jaw Pain
- You wake up with a sore jaw or a dull headache
- Your teeth look worn, flat or chipped
- Your teeth feel sensitive or loose
- A partner hears you grinding at night
- Your child grinds their teeth and you would like advice
A Gentle Approach for the Whole Family
Comfort and protection matter at every age. Children and teens benefit from sport guards when they play sports. Adults may need night guards for grinding, or sedation to get through treatments they have been avoiding. Whatever your needs, we will explain your options and let you set the pace.
Questions Are Always Welcome
If you are not sure which of these services suits you or your child, ask at your next visit or call us on (780) 784-6900. Your dentist will explain the options in plain language and answer every question before any treatment begins.
