The health and appearance of your teeth can change your quality of life. This change can be for the good, or it can be for the bad. You may not realize how your teeth, and your smile, affect your life.
Socially:
Your smile is one of the first things people notice. It is up front and personal. A healthy, bright and fresh smile is a great introduction and can lead to friendships and job/career opportunities. The benefits are obvious. However, an unhealthy mouth can have the opposite results.
Systemically:
Your mouth condition can also change your health. It is the gateway to the body. Whereas good oral health provides for better nutrition; bad oral health can introduce excessive germs into your body through the blood system, digestive tract, and respiratory organs. This can cause a decline in your health and nutrition.
At any age, as our lives change, we can have change in our oral health: Healthy teeth and gums promote your health, your comfort, your relationships, your success. It is about your quality of life!
How we can help:
“My dental visit anxiety disappeared after an appointment with Dr. Lowe.”
Let us transform your dental experience.
We want to help all have a healthy mouth and a good quality of life.
We understand that many have anxiety and fears when they visit their dental office. We are committed to changing that. We have developed a calming atmosphere and techniques performed with care and gentleness. Your comfort is our priority.
My personal childhood dental experiences were filled with fear. I was horrified to go to the dentist. My resultant empathy is a major factor in achieving the goal of helping others get past their fears.
We believe optimum oral health is related to total body health and extremely important to one’s quality of life. Therefore, we strive to provide quality dentistry with gentleness and excellence. Above all, you’ll have a more pleasurable experience.
Our Calming Atmosphere:
When you walk in the door, you are greeted by tranquil pictures and the sound of a water fountain. Have a seat and unwind, calm down and relax.
Mood-altering aromas, spa-like music, and a tranquil color scheme help keep you relaxed and comfortable. Pillows and warming blankets are available.
Studies have shown that tranquil settings can lower your pulse rate and decrease your pain response—some of our patients have actually fallen asleep in our chairs!
So if you are apprehensive of dental visits, we can be the solution.
Dentistry has changed. Our spa-like atmosphere reduces or removes the fear. You’ll be pleasantly surprised.
