Relieving dental anxiety is one of the areas we shine at. Our patients have commented so many times that this is so much easier than they thought it was gonna be. Starts with when you enter the office, we’ve got comforts, we’ve got blankets, heated neck rolls, we’ve even got paraffin hand treatments, we’ve got headphones.
We don’t rush our procedures. We take our time to make sure you’re comfortable and make sure the procedure is going smoothly. We never work on you if you’re feeling uncomfortable at any point.
Then for those who still have concerns, we have nitrous oxide available. That’s laughing gas. We don’t charge for it, and many of our patients are very happy about that. Even going further though, we provide oral sedation. We provide you with some medicine at an appointment. You come to the appointment, we provide you with some additional medicine, and you don’t remember the procedure. Afterwards, you’re recovering at home, and you don’t have any memory of the appointment.
Sometimes we encounter people who have cut off their care for a long amount of time. They may be ashamed and don’t wanna have someone else see the problems that they’ve been struggling with. They may be nervous about their appointments. I’d just like to let these individuals know that this is what we do. We handle the more complex cases, and we do it in a way that people become more and more comfortable with the procedures and need less and less persuasion, and are able to come to their appointments with more ease.

Conquer Your Anxiety With Our Caring Team
Anxiety about the dentist can come from a variety of reasons. It’s often a result of a previous bad experience, discomfort related to sights or sounds, or fear of pain related to treatment. We understand. That’s why Dr. Mueller and his team have ways to address what concerns you. We offer:
- Sedation Options – Choose laughing gas or oral sedation. Laughing gas is gentle and fades quickly. Oral sedation puts you in a deeply relaxed state. With this option, however, you will need to have a ride home.
- Cozy Amenities – Touches of home can help you relax. You can choose a blanket or pillow to stay cozy while we work. You can also wear headphones that block out the sounds of our equipment.
- Private Care Rooms – Many patients don’t like the idea of discussing their dental fears in a setting where other patients can hear. That’s why we have private care rooms. You can address what ails you in a peaceful and quiet setting.
- Advanced Technology – From digital X-rays to intraoral cameras and 3-D scanners, we use the latest tech to make precise diagnoses and streamline your procedures. You can trust our team to give you the best possible results in the least stressful and minimally invasive way.

Greetings!! It was very pleasant. All crews were very friendly. Brynn, my hygienist is very nice. Very detailed in explaning on my questions in regards to the subject, my teeth😁 Then, Mr Mueller himself is also nice. I like that he got light touch. Thank you!
Fear of the dentist can be so severe that a patient will not come into the office for decades at a time. Because oral health affects overall health, this person is likely suffering not only in their mouth but also in other areas of their body. It’s important to find a solution for the fear, so every patient can remain healthy.
We offer you two safe sedation options that will help you relax. Choose either mild laughing gas that you breathe in or oral conscious sedation in pill form. In addition, our office is warm and welcoming, and we have several amenities to help you feel at home. You can take advantage of cozy blankets and soft pillows to help take your mind off dental care.
We’ve found that a pleasant dental visit often begins at home. If you start to feel anxious about your upcoming dental work, take a few deep breaths while picturing yourself lying back peacefully on our dental chair in your private care room. Then, when you’re in the office, you can repeat this same exercise to eliminate any residual anxiety.
