Anxiety does not need to be a reason to skip dental appointments. We can help.

 

Offered at our Main Street Office, nitrous oxide can calm you down and help you through your visits. Both children and adults are good candidates for this extra comfort treatment. 

 

How it works: At the beginning of the procedure, you will breathe in the nitrous and oxygen, and within 3 to 5 minutes start to feel the calming effects. Called 'conscious sedation', with nitrous oxide you will be able to hear and respond to any requests your dentist may have. Novacaine may still be necessary, however the anxiety will be gone. "At the end of the dental visit, you breathe in plain oxygen for about 5 minutes, the effect wears off; the treatment is completed. You can drive home or back to work," says Tracy Reinhart, DMD, FAGD. 

 

We are licensed to offer this option by the Pennsylvania State Board of Dentistry and our dentists have specialized training in nitrous oxide/oxygen analgesia. We would be glad to discuss whether it is a good option for you. Contact our office to make an appointment  by e-mail, or call 215-723-2162. 

Twice a year, at our WRR Smile Day, our team volunteers their time to treat patients who cannot afford dental care. The event is organized by Dr. Dave Guengerich and our front desk coordinator Sherry Detweiler. In recognition of our efforts, we were honored to receive an award at the annual Pennsylvania Academy of General Dentistry (PAGD) banquet in Bedford, Pennsylvania in April 2013. 

 

In addition, PAGD Cares was launched to reach untreated dental patients in our Pennsylvania communities. Dr. John Reckner, FAGD and Dr. R. Todd Weaver, FAGD, participated in the first clinical outreach at PAGD's 2012 Annual Meeting in Philadelphia. The outreach was held at the University of Pennsylvania Dental School and Dr. Weaver's daughter Keri was their assistant and did a phenomenal job. Watch this really lovely video about PAGD Cares (and look for Dr. Reckner's and Dr. Weaver's cameo!).

Enjoying a staff and family night out, we filled the lanes on Saturday, April 13 at the Earl Bowl in Telford. 25 staff members and families had wonderful fun, and Dylan Rauschenberger, Business Administrator, and Melissa Faulkner, R.D.H., who turn out to be great bowlers, got to 'ring the bell.' By far the cutest moments were the little ones looking in the ball return for the ball to arrive. A good time was had by all, and the vote is for it to become an annual staff event!
