Virtually Pain Free Dental Care...
 We
know that many patients are apprehensive about receiving dental care.
We pride ourselves on our
ability to make each patient as comfortable and relaxed as possible
while receiving care.
First, we listen to your concerns. We then discuss different methods for
making you as comfortable as possible. Together, we lay out a
treatment plan that will meet your needs. We have several options:
1. Our Sedation Dental Care Program
Many of our patients prefer to relax through their dental care. Pacifico Dental Care offers a Sedation Care Program where qualified patients can
just take a small pill and relax and in many cases have all of their
dental needs taken care of in just one appointment. If this
sounds right for you, just

2. Our Famous Virtually Painless Injection
Most of our patients at Pacifico Dental Care never know they have received
an injection. That's because of our famous virtually "Painless
Injection" technique. Our gentle technique works so well we rarely have
to swab a topical anesthetic on the tissue first.
3. Local Anesthetic For Pain Free Care
Injectable anesthetics, such as Lidocaine, prevent pain in a specific area of your mouth during
treatment by blocking the nerves that sense or transmit pain and
numbing mouth tissues.
They cause the temporary numbness often referred to as a "fat lip"
feeling. Injectable anesthetics may be used in such procedures
as filling cavities, preparing teeth for crowns or treating gum
disease.
4. Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas)
Nitrous oxide is an easy way to relax you without the loss of
consciousness. Most people may drive to your dental visit yourself.
Upon arrival, you relax in our dental chair and just breath the gas
through your nose. This "laughing gas" will relax you like a glass or
two of wine without putting you to sleep. It takes the edge off of
getting dental treatment done and the time goes by fast. As soon as you
stop breathing the gas you will return to normal consciousness. By the
time you leave the office most people can even drive themselves home.
Best of all there are no hangovers to deal with afterwards.
5. Post-Treatment Comfort
We want you to be as comfortable as possible after your care. We often
send our patients home with a supply of non-narcotic analgesics to
relieve any post treatment discomfort. These include aspirin,
acetaminophen and no-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as
ibuprofen.
