It is in your calendar and on your schedule. And, the postcard comes in the mail to remind you about your twice a year dental checkups and cleanings. However, how many of us know someone who doesn’t like going to the dentist and avoids regular appointments even though they are necessary for good dental health both today and as we get older?
Beverly Hills gentle dentist, Dr. Kourosh Maddahi understands that not all of his patients are excited about coming to his office. That is why he has created a spa-like experience at his dental office by combining a calming atmosphere with state-of-the-art dental technology.
You’ll know from the minute you step into the waiting area that Dr. Maddahi’s office is different. Beautiful artwork, comfortable chairs, marble floors and a relaxing fountain greet you instead of the normal sterile hospital-like office. Dr. Maddahi is careful to only schedule one patient at a time, so your appointment typically starts when scheduled.
One of Dr. Maddahi’s team will lead you into a relaxing exam room where you will have time to ask Dr. Maddahi questions about your dental procedures or any concerns you may have. Dr. Maddahi’s goal is to educate you about your dental needs and about needed procedures so you feel calm and relaxed throughout the process. One way he is able to do this is by explaining procedures and showing you any dental issues with high-tech diagnostic equipment like intra-oral cameras that show close-up views of the mouth and teeth on chair-side digital screens, digital x-rays which can be viewed seconds after they are taken and a laser cavity detection tool that identifies cavities a normal dental pick can not.
Spa dentistry at Dr. Maddahi’s means keeping dental procedures as painless as possible. So instead of a traditional dental drill, Dr. Maddahi uses the Waterlase MD Turbo. The cool laser system works like a traditional drill but without generating the heat, pressure or vibration you have come to expect with dental drills. Dental decay is removed with a gentle spray of water, so little or no anesthesia is needed and there is little swelling when the procedure is completed.
