Why Aren’t You Smiling?

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

why-frown-1Hello, I’m Dr. J. Scott Anderson. My dental practice is called Willowbrook Dental Care. We are located at 17350 State Highway 249, Suite 200, Houston, TX 77064, and you can reach us by calling (281) 571-3760.

You can probably imagine why I look at smiles everywhere I go in the Houston area. Whether I am working with a West University Place or Spring Valley dental patient, having dinner at a Houston restaurant, or attending a sporting event, I notice whether the people around me smile. Whenever I encounter someone with obvious tooth problems, I want to tell them about the procedures that can completely transform their frown into a healthy and beautiful smile.

Are you one of those people who don’t want to show their teeth? I would love to talk to you about a smile makeover. Whatever your excuse is for notseeking dental treatment, I can discuss all of your concerns with you during a free consultation.

Perhaps you are afraid of dental work. Have you ever considered oral conscious sedation? With sedation dentistry, even extensive treatment is virtually pain free. Sedation will calm your mind as well as the nerves in your mouth.

Perhaps the cost of Houston cosmetic dentistry is holding you back. My very comfortable and friendly staff will be happy to talk to you about financing plans. It is important to remember that if your teeth are decayed, postponing treatment will cost more money in the long run. Filling a cavity is far more affordable dentistry than a root canal procedure or, in the case of an extracted tooth, a dental implant.

You can contact my office at (281) 571-3760 or online at http://www.thehoustoncosmeticdentist.com. My Houston family dental website contains information about all the general, restorative and aesthetic services we provide.

I can transform your smile into one that you will want to show all the time!

Oral Conscious Sedation

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

Oral Conscious Sedation Some people experience severe anxiety when undergoing dental treatment. With oral conscious sedation, it is possible to relax during dental procedures instead of being tense and fearful. Oral sedation dentistry, relaxation dentistry, conscious sedation and anxiety-free dentistry are all terms used to describe this type of treatment. In addition to alleviating anxiety, oral conscious sedation can help patients with a variety of conditions.

You may want to consider oral conscious sedation if you have any of the following issues:

  • Strong gag reflex
  • Fear of needles
  • Sensitive teeth
  • Fear and anxiety associated with dental treatment
  • Difficulty getting numb
  • A history of negative dental experiences
  • Trouble controlling body movement due to Parkinson’s disease, Cerebral Palsy or related conditions
  • Need extensive dental treatment requiring lengthy dental visits

If you have avoided dental treatment due to any of these factors, give us a call at (281) 571-3760. We can give you more information about sedation options and help you determine which one is right for you. At Willowbrook Dental Care we do all we can to make your visit as comfortable as possible. We look forward to discussing your oral health and dental goals.

Sedation Dentistry in Houston

Thursday, August 6th, 2009

Sedation Dentistry in Houston Picture the following scenario: You are stretched out in a chair at your dentist’s office holding a remote as you try to tune into your favorite Texas radio station. An assistant clips a paper bib around your neck. Someone switches on a bright overhead light and you see latex-gloved hands moving toward your open mouth. You close your eyes.

As you read this, does your heart begin racing? Are your palms sweaty?

If so, you may be a good candidate for sedation dentistry. Oral sedation benefits nervous dental patients in Houston every day. Moderate sedation is used for all types of dental procedures such as root canals, dental implants, and wisdom teeth removal. If you are considering extensive restorative or cosmetic dental work, conscious sedation may allow your dentist to complete multiple procedures in a single visit.

Don’t let fear prevent you from getting the dental treatment you need. Schedule a visit with Dr. J. Scott Anderson to learn about conscious sedation dentistry.
