Caring and Knowledgeable Periodontists

Comfort and Sedation

The doctors will explain your procedure thoroughly so you know what to expect.

Dr. Perlman and Dr. Molina will take every measure to ensure your periodontal treatment is anxiety-free. They have a reassuring chairside manner and a genuine concern that their patients feel at ease.

Trust and open communication are cornerstones of our practice. Our doctors will take whatever time is needed to educate you about your condition and dental health. They will explain all procedures so you know what to expect and can feel at ease.

Comfort Amenities for Your Relaxation

To make your treatment more comfortable in the chair, we provide pillows, blankets and headphones to listen to music. There are always refreshments in our reception area for you to enjoy.

A Minimally Invasive, Gentle Approach to Dental Procedures

One of the best ways we can ensure your comfort is by using advanced technology and minimally invasive procedures.

Dental Laser for Treating Gum Disease

Our dental laser is a gentle surgical device used for treating moderate to severe gum disease. It is far less invasive than traditional surgical instruments as it only targets diseased tissue without affecting healthy tissue, teeth and bone.

Ultrasonic Scalers for Gentle Cleanings

Comfort and Sedation

We use advanced technology for comfortable and minimally invasive treatment.

We use ultrasonic scalers to remove the majority of the plaque and calculus from your teeth. A thorough ultrasonic cleaning takes less time and is gentler on teeth enamel than traditional scaling instruments. The scalers can also be adjusted for patient comfort.

Non-Traumatic Extractions

When our doctors need to perform a tooth extraction, they use a gentle approach to dislodge the tooth from the socket, with little or no destruction to the surrounding gum and bone.

Gentle Injections

A topical anesthetic is first applied to numb the injection site. The injection is then delivered slowly with a computer-regulated flow of anesthesia precisely to the treatment site. Our doctors will warm the anesthetic to body temperature to avoid any unpleasant sensation from the cold.

Sedation Options for Your Comfort

For long procedures or for patients who need extra help to relax, we have several sedation options for your comfort. Dr. Perlman or Dr. Molina will let you know which one will best suit your needs.

Nitrous Oxide

Nitrous oxide is a colorless, odorless gas that you inhale and which reduces tension and anxiety. The effects of the gas wear off quickly after you stop inhaling. To ensure a speedy recovery time, we give you pure oxygen immediately after terminating the nitrous oxide.

Oral Sedation

A sedative in pill form is also available to help you relax. The sedative puts you in a twilight-like sleep where you can still respond to requests and questions from the doctor.
