Sedation Dentistry = Peace of Mind
Dental fear had kept this patient from the dentist for 20 years.
However,
she was also afraid of losing a tooth to periodontal (gum) disease
– an all
too common occurrence for many adults. Luckily, her fiancé,
a long time
patient, convinced her to see us after she complained about
a tooth "hanging
down." Our Sedation Dentistry gave her the peace of mind
she needed and we
were able to treat her periodontal disease and prepare her teeth
for her
beautiful restorations.
To bring her back to complete health and function, Dr. Clemans
created a
natural-looking restoration using a porcelain bridge. She was
so
comfortable by her last visit, which was scheduled to place
her permanent
bridge, that sedation wasn't needed or wanted. The only MAJOR
issue was her
inability to stop smiling.
