Plan Your First Visit
Your first visit with us is a designed to integrate you into our dental family. During your first visit, we get to know you as a person, asking many questions about your smile goals. We spend almost two hours with you, one-on-one, collecting information and records that will help us give you ALL the options for your smile, and then move forward exactly how you want to, together. Our daily mission is to offer the finest dentistry in Amarillo, and you can expect a unique "wow" experience.
SEDATION / FEARLESS DENTISTRY
If you have some level of anxiety about visiting the dentist, then you are in good company with 75% of other Americans. Some level of anxiety or nervousness about going to the dentist is common, but for too many people, visiting the dentist is a dreaded event that provokes outright fear. We offer sedation dentistry for individuals with dental anxiety or certain other pre-existing conditions that make it difficult to receive oral healthcare.
Many individuals who suffer from severe dental anxiety go years without seeing a dentist, and thus tend to need more dentistry and longer appointments to get their mouth back in ideal shape. This is why sedation dentistry can be so helpful. Do not let fear stand between you and quality oral health care. Sedation dentistry removes that barrier!
Be sure you plan to have someone drive you to and from your appointment if you choose to take part in sedation dentistry. Also, be sure to share your entire medical history with the doctor, prior to receiving sedation, to ensure its effectiveness and safety are optimized to your unique body type, medications, and health history.
NUCALM
NuCalm is the world’s most sophisticated neuroacoustic listening software that oscillates brain wave function between deep relaxation and recovery. The physics used in the NuCalm software guides the brain to alpha and theta zones, which are the zones where you are most relaxed, for instance, just before you drift off to sleep in your own bed at night.
NITROUS OXIDE
Also known as laughing gas, nitrous oxide gas is administered through a nasal mask, and produces a calming effect that eases fear and diminishes awareness of surroundings while maintaining the ability to fully communicate. The effect of nitrous oxide wears off instantly following your procedure.
ORAL SEDATION
With oral sedation, a 2 hour dental appointment can feel like 15 minutes to the patient. Administered in pill form, this is most commonly used in patients with high dental anxiety, a strong gag reflex, or problems controlling muscles for a given period of time. Both Dr. Miller and Dr. Esler have received many hours of specialized training in the technique of oral sedation, and have the skills and equipment necessary to safely make you very comfortable throughout a long appointment when a lot of dentistry is being completed.
FINANCING OPTIONS
We promise to always be upfront about the costs associated with seeking high quality dental care. If you have dental benefits through your work or elsewhere, we will prepare all paperwork necessary and help you file your claim for maximum reimbursement. Full payment is collected at the time of service, and your dental benefit plan is responsible for reimbursing you once your claim is filed. We find that when the benefit plan reimburses the patient directly, that there is often slightly better reimbursement for procedures performed.
We provide many financing options to our patients. To make payment easy, we accept all major credit cards and offer affordable in-house payment plans as well as CareCredit, LendingClub, and a special partnership with Amarillo National Bank, all with interest-free financing options.
