Pain Management


The potential for pain is one of the top reasons why people avoid visiting with the dentist. Some people will go a year or longer without a dental appointment due to the fear of pain. Certain individuals fear needles used for anesthesia while others detest dental drills. Some people simply have ongoing oral pain that does not seem to improve no matter what is done.
