Our Treatments

MAD Alphastim

Alphastim is a non-invasive and drug-free approach to managing dental anxiety. This technology uses gentle electrical currents to stimulate the brain’s natural relaxation response, promoting a sense of calm and well-being during your treatment.

CBD

For patients who prefer a natural alternative to traditional sedation methods, we offer CBD (cannabidiol) options. CBD has been shown to have calming and anxiety-reducing properties, allowing you to undergo dental procedures in a more relaxed state.

Oral Sedation

Oral sedation involves taking a prescribed medication before your appointment to induce a state of deep relaxation. This form of sedation is safe and effective for mild to moderate dental anxiety or shorter procedures.

IV Sedation with Anesthesiologist

For more extensive procedures or individuals with severe dental anxiety, we offer IV sedation administered by our dual board-certified medical doctor, Dr. Andrew Koogler. This method ensures a deeper level of sedation while maintaining your safety and comfort throughout the treatment.

Finding Dr. Taylor and her team was was such a godsend! I was referred by a homeopathic doctor in my town who said it would be worth my while to make the 1 1/2 hr drive…oh boy was she right! That was over seven years ago and I’m still making the drive because I have found no other office that compares. The care they offer is comprehensive and cutting edge. They helped me make informed choices that not only saved my teeth, but have improved my overall health. I HIGHLY recommend them!
