Beverly Hills Spa Dentistry is the Higher Standard of Gentle Dentistry

09/03/2009

Arriving in the Beverly Hills dentist office of Los Angeles cosmetic dentist, Dr. Kourosh Maddahi, one might possibly exclaim, “Toto, I have a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore.” Just like Oz is so different from Kansas, Dr. Maddahi’s Spa Dentistry office is quite unlike other dental offices.

His first order of business is to ensure that the patient feels welcome and is comfortable – from the minute they near the office. With valet parking right across the street, an office concierge greeting the patient – offering tea, coffee, water and the like, and the warm, aesthetic atmosphere of the gallery-like surroundings, this really is a new standard of dentistry.

As quickly as possible, usually instantly, the patient is taken into the examination room where Dr. Maddahi begins his treatment with a thorough exchange with his patient. A discussion is had of the procedures about to be done. This fully covers all concerns or questions the patient may have. The doctor wants to ensure that the patient knows what to expect and this, he has found, helps to relax patients and dramatically prevents the stress of a dental appointment.

Many patients avoid the dentist either because they have a fear of the dentist or that they have had a bad experience. They really do not want to return to the dentist. But at the office of Dr. Maddahi, the emphasis is on stress-free, pain-free dentistry – offering their patients an experience unlike any previous dental appointment.

Communication between the patient and the doctor is vital for gentle dentistry. Is there a history of painful dentistry? Is the patient afraid of needles? Do they have a low pain threshold? What exactly are they concerned about? Once these and other important subjects are discussed and settled it is time to begin.

Dr. Maddahi uses the newest anesthesia tool, the Citoject, which is a pen-shaped device. The important factor is that it numbs only the tooth that is to be worked on, not the cheek or tongue or face or lips, essentially making injections painless.

Dr. Maddahi explains, "What causes the pain of an injection is not the needle but the rate of delivery of the anesthetic. Before the Citoject, using conventional methods, few dentists could be painless. However with the Citoject a micro-compressor controls the rate of the injection so patients feel only a slight pressure, no pain. I try very hard to put the patient's comfort first. I have used the Citoject since it first came on the market."

This is one of numerous cutting edge high-tech tools offered in Dr. Maddahi’s office, tools not found in a typical dental office. Patients find help with relaxation when they watch a film on 3-D movie goggles, which are chosen from a library of movies to watch.

Combining these services with the considerate and understanding office staff at the Beverly Hills office of Los Angeles cosmetic dentist, Dr. Kourosh Maddahi, this results in the a higher standard in dental patient care with the latest in cosmetic and general dentistry procedures.
