| Not every dental procedure can be 100% painless, but the staff at Pacific Dental Care employ the most recent methods of dispensing anesthesia and other advances in dentistry to make your visit as comfortable as possible. |
| |
| Below are just some of the methods we can use to reduce discomfort, and sometimes eliminate it all together! |
| |
| Relaxed and Professional Environment |
| Our office prides itself on not being rushed and centering our attention to our patients and the environment we create for them. You will feel comfortable and relaxed while we take gentle care of you. |
| |
| Blankets, Pillows, or Whatever You Want |
| We have almost everything you can request to help make you comfortable. Just ask and bets are that you will get it! |
| |
| Audio and Video analgesia |
| We have movie glasses that allow you to watch a movie while your getting your dental care. Pick from our list or bring your own! Where there are computers, there are CD players and headsets. Bring your own music on compact disc, or select one of ours, and use it to transport yourself to a place more relaxing that the dentist's office. |
| |
 |
| Pre-medication |
| When needed, our doctors can select medication to mildly sedate or calm patients before and during the appointment. Sometimes this is used to simply help patients sleep the night before an appointment. |
| |
| Laughing gas |
| N2O2 or "laughing gas" as it is sometimes called, offers an excellent alternative for many people without high risk and high cost associated with being put to sleep. |
| |
| Microdentistry |
| The days of painful scraping and drilling are nearly over. The latest micropreparation systems allow us to perform most routine dental procedures without the need for shots, the discomfort of numb lips, or the tedious waiting times associated with dentistry in the past. That's what I call a balance between technology and comfort... and it costs no more than doing it the old way. |
| |
 |
| Infection control |
| We are all very concerned about your safety. Every member of our staff is trained in the most recent infection control technologies. To list all the new technologies we use for this would take another whole website! |
| |
| Fiberoptics |
| Sometimes, the older technology is the only route available. We have taken effective, older instruments, and made them better. All of our high speed drills are accurately guided by fiber optic technology for a lower margin of error, and less discomfort for all. |

It's one thing to tell a patient to relax but its quite another thing to provide the tools to allow them to do so. |
