If you think you are going to sit through a lecture on the importance of dental health, you can stop worrying. We are here to help, not to cause you more anxiety. Trust us, we of all people know that dental health is affected by a number of factors that could be environmental, hereditary or habitual. Our goal is to help you achieve a healthy, beautiful smile and in the most painless way possible.

 You might be surprised to know that we have seen it all. If you think your teeth are bad, we’ve probably seen worse. Good news is, we are here to help. Dr. Olsen practices every discipline of dentistry so no need to have treatment done anywhere else! A large part of our training and professional work involves being exposed to just about every dental problem you can imagine. Without that kind of experience, how could we properly evaluate your teeth and treat them? We couldn’t.

 One of the most important things you can do is to be up front with us. If you have dental anxiety, don’t silently suffer in the chair – tell us! We do offer sedation. The same goes for anything specific that might scare you – whether it’s needles or anesthesia or just sitting in the chair. And please tell us what we can do to make your visit more comfortable. Others like us to explain what we’re doing before we do it. And some people find that taking frequent breaks is helpful.

 Let’s talk about what you need before you talk yourself out of scheduling another visit. We’ll do whatever we can to ensure that you have a positive experience getting the dental care you need. Remember, dentistry isn’t expensive, neglect is.
