If you’re looking for a cosmetic dentistry office to go to in Arizona, Dr. J. Ladd Williams is a fantastic choice. He’s experienced and works hard to make patients comfortable.
I never understood why some people experience high anxiety and dread going to the dentist because I love it. What’s better than perfectly clean, shiny teeth? I have never had major dental problems, so that may be part of the reason I don’t mind it…but for those of you who do experience anxiety and fear with the dentist, there’s a wonderful thing called sedation dentistry. Some dentist offices offer headphones with DVDs or music to distract clients. That’s a huge help to patients who have a fear of the dentist, especially when the appointment is for something other than a regular cleaning. And if distraction isn’t enough, there’s always sedation.
The differences cosmetic dentistry can make is incredible. The fact that a patient can walk into an office with a mouth full of rotting teeth and emerge just hours later with a whole new set of perfect teeth boggles my mind. How is it possible? Here’s the answer: a lot of training and a lot of work.
In order to be a (good) dentist, these people really must love what they do. There is no way I could look at periodontal and gum disease all day and find joy in treating it. Luckily for me and my teeth, there are people in this world who absolutely love teeth. They love cleaning, examining, diagnosing, treating, and repairing. I know I’m thankful for dentists and orthodontists who are fantastic at what they do.
Next time you are searching for a cosmetic dentist in Phoenix, take into consideration what is most important to you. Do some researching. How much experience do the dentist and his staff have? How long have they been practicing? What are their specialties? Some dental offices specialize in cosmetic dentistry, some in preventative, some in restorative, etc. If you just need a general family dentist, make sure you find one that fits with the needs of your family (and insurance company, of course).
If you are looking for a new dentist, ask family and friends who they trust, check which dentists accept your insurance, and find one that is the right fit for your family. Do your research online and by word of mouth. Search “sedation dentistry Az” in Google if you need a dentist in the state who can help with your anxiety. Search “cosmetic dentist Mesa” or whatever city you are in to find a dentist nearby.
My advice to people who are afraid of the dentists: figure out where the fear is coming from and eliminate it. The great services that dentists offer are endless, and a better smile very often comes with better self confidence. Overcome your childhood fears and learn how gorgeous teeth can change your life. For those who have tried and just can’t get over the fear, consider trying sedation dentistry. There are ways to get teeth cleaning, whitening, fillings, and whatever else you need without dealing with the anxiety that accompanies.
Dentists can literally change the way others see you and how you see yourself. Give it a try!
