The Scents Of Relaxation

Do you struggle with your thoughts moving at a pace and pattern of a monkey? Do they tend to swing from branch to branch getting caught in messy vines of stress and fears? If you identify with this, then you may be seeking a sense of calm and relaxation, and a place of rest for your dental care.

If you feel caught in the vines of fear and anxiety when it comes to getting the proper dental care, you may want to consider using essential oils. Essential oils have been around for thousands of years. They are natural oil derived from plants and other parts of nature.

Lavender Oil

Lavender oil can help give you a calm and relaxed feeling when inhaled, diffused or diluted and applied to your skin. It can also help give you a sense of inner peace. It can help you with sleeping, restlessness, irritability, and a “nervous stomach.”

Ylang Ylang

Ylang Ylang (for proper pronunciation you can find it here). This essential oil promotes cheerfulness, bravery, and positivity and can soothe fears. It also has a sedative effect.

Rose

Rose essential oils are known to help depression. It can also help with stress and anxiety.

At Peninsula Cosmetic & Family Dentistry, we have created a peaceful environment for your comfort and relaxation. We don’t want anyone to not get the proper dental care they need or want due to fear or anxiety. Dr. Wisner and Dr. Forehand will discuss your level of dental anxiety with you and they can offer you several different sedation options to make your dental procedure less painful and less filled with anxiety. We offer Lightwalker Dental laser, The Dental Wand, and sedation dentistry.

Call and book your appointment with Peninsula Cosmetic & Family Dentistry today. Your comfort is our priority.

No Insurance?
No Problem!

Join our Premier Plan Today

Dentistry should be as affordable as it is high-quality. At Peninsula Cosmetic & Family Dentistry, we firmly believe that the terms of a dental insurance plan (or lack thereof) should not dictate the quality of care our patients deserve. That’s why we are pleased to offer our in-house savings plan. Now, patients who are uninsured can STILL save on general, preventative, and even ortho services!

Absolutely phenomenal dental office. Not only are the dentists outstanding at their craft but, like every person in the office, they are incredibly friendly and genuine. And that is so important. I earnestly recommend Peninsula if you are looking for the highest quality care, expertise and, equally important, quality people. I would give them 10 stars if I could.
