Our Team Prioritizes Relieving Dental Anxiety in Collegeville
Most people feel good when they leave the dentist with a healthier smile, but not everyone looks forward to their appointments. If you’re nervous or even fearful about visiting our Collegeville, PA dental office, you needn’t be. Our specialists and staff are experts at relieving dental anxiety.
You’ll remain relaxed with:
- Local Anesthesia for Painless Care – Before beginning any procedure, we apply an anesthetic to numb the area and eliminate your ability to feel pain. We use a high-tech tool called The Wand®, which enables us to painlessly administer the exact amount of anesthesia needed.
- Longer Appointment Times and Private Operatories – We understand that many people (especially patients who may already be nervous about visiting the dentist) do not want their dental care to be displayed for the entire office to see. You will never feel rushed or embarrassed when you visit Dr. DiGiallorenzo.
- Board-Certified Anesthesiologist – To provide the best care possible, the LANAP and Implant Center partners with a board-certified anesthesiologist. He can provide IV sedation for patients experiencing dental fear or anxiety.
Don’t let fear keep you from getting a healthy smile. Call the LANAP and Implant Center at 610-409-6461.
