Half of Americans Don’t Visit the Dentist

December 14, 2010

That’s right, 50% of our fellow countrymen (and women) don’t visit the dentist. Why? Well, for some, finances and availability of care are issues. However, many people don’t go to the dentist because of a genuine fear, or even phobia.

If you’ve neglected dental visits because they make you uncomfortable, stressed, anxious, or paralyzed with fear, I want to personally invite you to email or call me, Dr. Brad Greenfield, so that we can talk about sedation dentistry. With sedation, I’ve helped many people overcome their phobia and get the dental care they need, want, and deserve.

After you and I talk about your feelings and concerns, I can help you determine which type of sedation is best for your situation. I can administer nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral sedation (Halcyon or Valium), or oral sedation plus nitrous oxide. My nurse anesthetist, Karla Fountain, can administer IV sedation in my office.

I want to answer all of your questions and help you find the right sedation solution to give you peace at dental visits. Call my office, Lake Orion Family Dentistry, today at 248-693-6213 or email me at [email protected]. We can email or talk on the phone prior to your consultation. I’m happy to communicate in any way that you prefer. I just want you to experience the positive, life-changing effects of sedation dentistry.
