South Lake Tahoe Dentists Five Minute Second Opinion

South Lake Tahoe Dentists Five Minute Second Opinion

South Lake Tahoe Physicians & Dentists

South Lake Tahoe, California has one of the most beautiful natural environments in which to live. However, due to the nature of the community, employment opportunities do not abound. As such, health and dental care may be avoided until absolutely necessary.There are many physicians and several dentists on the South Shore of Lake Tahoe, and the stateline area of this beautiful lake. For such a small community, there are a wonderfully competent array of dental and medical care providers. Orthopedic physicians are some of the best, as are the cosmetic, implant, endodontic and children's dentists in the region. Residents of Tahoe need not travel for the best health care. Fear of dental care should not preclude an individual from obtaining a beautiful smile, as sleep dentistry/sedation dentistry is available on the South Shore of Lake Tahoe

Dental Sedation

How many of your friends and relatives are self conscious of their smile or are in chronic pain due to fear of the dentist? I meet people daily with this problem. The dental profession is not doing the best it can to educate the public on this issue. Nitrous oxide gas, oral sedatives and intravenous sedatives are available now, and can eliminate the "stressfull and Bad" dental experience. Though oral sedatives can yield some degree of amnesia, the intravenous route will most definitely eliminate any recollection of the procedure, while not adversely affecting the protective reflexes that we all have.

Why are patients not asking for these services regularly? Why aren't dentists offering these services regularly? Is it the fear of needles? Is it the fear of the unknown?
