A Three Phase Approach to Comfort for Our Prosper Patients

 

At Prosper Smiles Family Dentistry, we take your comfort seriously. We understand that many patients have a particular fear of oral injections, yet this type of injection is an little boy at the dentists | Comfortable Dentistry in Prosper TX | Prosper Smiles Family Dentistryabsolutely crucial part of many dental care procedures. That’s why Dr. Vimal Patel developed a phased approach to making oral injections pain-free:

  • Phase 1: Numb The Area

Dr. Patel applies a high-strength anesthestic gel to the site. Within a few seconds, the tissues have numbed significantly.

  • Phase 2: Warm The Anesthetic

Studies have demonstrated that heating an anesthetic to a temperature that approximates normal body temperature significantly reduces the "sting" associated with cool or room temperature anesthetic.

  • Phase 3: Utilize The Dental Vibe

When applied to the injection site, this innovative device emits high-frequency vibrations that essentially block the brain's pain receptors. With "Dental Vibe," patients feel little more than soothing pulsations.

Get Back to Normal in Record Time at Prosper Smiles Family Dentistry

Dr. Patel also proudly offers OraVerse®, a revolutionary new product that can help you return to your normal activities after a dental procedure without the hours of numbness. If you’ve ever had a dental procedure like a filling or a crown placement, then you’re familiar with the hours of numb lips and tongue you have to endure after the procedure. In most cases, talking, eating, and even controlling your saliva can become a difficult and embarrassing challenge. In clinical studies, OraVerse® was shown to help patients return to normal lip and tongue function in half the time.
