Sep 02, 2014 /prREACH/ -- Dr. Neil R. Woods, dental implants dentist in Severna Park, MD is helping his patients experience a more comfortable, relaxing visit for their dental restorations using the latest oral sedation technology. With oral sedation, patients are able to stay in a relaxed, sleepy state throughout the duration of their visit, with little to no memory of the procedure after it is completed.
Approximately 1 in 7 Americans experience some extent of anxiety or fear about dental visits. This is especially the case for patients who require more extensive procedures, such as the cosmetic dental implants that Dr. Woods provides. With oral sedation, however, patients of Dr. Woods can enjoy an anxiety-free visit.
“The anticipation of receiving invasive dental procedures like fillings, crowns, or dental implants can trigger so much anxiety in some patients that they avoid their appointment altogether,” said Dr. Woods. “Oral sedation has really changed the way patients view their dental treatments and their overall experience at our office when they visit.”
Patients who qualify for oral sedation are given a prescription by Dr. Woods prior to their appointment. The patient picks up the prescription sedative at a local pharmacy and takes it 1-2 hours before visiting the dental office. During their appointment, patients are in a relaxed, sleepy state and much less aware of sights, sounds, smells, and pain. After their procedure is completed, patients have little to no memory of the procedure, and are able to go about their daily business the same day after the effects of the pill have worn off.
In addition to providing permanent dental implants, Dr. Woods offers a variety of other dental treatments at his office as well. For patients requiring ceramic restorations such as crowns, inlays, onlays, or veneers, Dr. Woods is able to create and place the restorations in just one office visit. Dr. Woods is also a certified provider of Invisalign for patients who desire straighter smiles without the look and hassle of traditional braces.
Dr. Neil R. Woods is a graduate of NYU School of Dentistry, and has been practicing in the profession for more than 30 years. After leaving NYU, Dr. Woods finished a residency at Johns Hopkins University, where he received extensive training in IV sedation and reconstructive techniques. Dr. Woods is dedicated to staying current in the latest dental technology and procedures to make sure his patients always receive the highest level of care in his office. He is known by his patients to always provide the utmost level of personal care and service, often giving his personal cell phone number to patients who may need to reach him for emergencies.
