Modern dentistry is performed today using highly advanced and cutting edge technology. The Family Dentist in Stockton, CA performs his work quickly and efficiently, knowing his patients do not want to be in the dental chair for long periods of time. If anxious patients come into the office needing multiple procedures completed, he will use nitrous oxide which has an extreme calming effect on the patient. While in this calm and happy state, he can complete more procedures than he could have on someone extremely nervous.
Not only does this calming effect help the patient, it helps the dentist do his work without worrying about sudden movements a fearful patient could make. Dr. Rujul G. Parikh D.D.S is a very caring dentist. He strives for each patient he serves to be contented and unafraid the entire time he/she is sitting in the dental chair. He also wants them to have the most wonderful smile when his work is finished. The Family Dentist in Stockton, CA starts treatment on most patients by offering preventative care which is excellent in maintaining the teeth and ensures they remain strong and healthy.
Preventative care consists of regular cleanings and X-rays by friendly, intelligent and caring hygienists. The dentist will apply sealants, space maintainers and fluoride treatment and then he talks with his patients, going over concerns he has about the teeth. If your teeth are suffering from decay or your gums are not healthy, these are the first concerns he will address. He wants you to have a healthy mouth before you begin thinking about cosmetic procedures. Once your mouth and gums are healthy and your teeth are filled and cleaned, you can begin making important decisions about a complete smile makeover.
If you have lost a tooth, you may need an implant. If they are chipped you may want porcelain veneers. If your teeth are not white, you may want the teeth whitening treatment so many other people have gotten. You may also need new dentures if your old ones are not staying in properly while you are chewing. Every person is looking for a different solution in their quest for the beautiful smile. When you have a family dentist in Stockton, CA that understands his patients, their fears, and also their personalities, that quest becomes so much easier.
