Patients who value and take pride in their appearance, feel the difference a new smile can make in their lives. 2/3 of Americans believe an unattractive smile will hinder career advancement (U.S. News & World Report, Feb. 1999):
"Recent studies from prominent universities have shown that an attractive smile is one of the most important features of self image. This study showed that when people met a person who had an attractive smile, they felt the person was more honest, more successful, and more pleasant to be with. Another study showed that when two people interviewed for the same job, had the same qualifications, and wore the same clothes, the individual with the attractive smile was more likely to get that job and even receive a higher starting salary!"

ROOT CANALS (also known as Endodontic Therapy) is a sequence of treatment for the pulp of a tooth whose end result is the elimination of infection and protection of the decontaminated tooth from future microbial invasion. The procedure involves the complete removal of the anatomical hollows within a tooth that have become infected, the subsequent cleaning, shaping and decontamination of these hollows with the use of tiny files and irrigating solutions and the obturation, or filling, of the decontaminated root canals with an inert filling, such as gutta percha and a usually eugenol-based cement. Although the procedure is relatively painless when done properly, the root canal remains the stereotypically fearsome dental operation. With the use of Sedation Dentistry, Pleasant Hill Dental Group eases the fear of such a procedure.
WISDOM TEETH EXTRACTIONS are performed for two general reasons: either the wisdom teeth have become impacted (failed to emerge fully into its expected position), or the wisdom teeth could potentially become problematic if not extracted. Potential problems caused by the presence of properly grown-in wisdom teeth include infections caused by food particles easily trapped in the jaw area behind the wisdom teeth where regular brushing and flossing is difficult and ineffective. Such infections may be frequent, and cause considerable pain and medical danger. Other reasons wisdom teeth are removed include misalignment which rubs up against the tongue or cheek causing pain, potential crowding or malocclusion of the remaining teeth (a result of there being not enough room on the jaw/ in the mouth), as well as orthodontics. With the use of Sedation Dentistry, Pleasant Hill Dental Group can perform wisdom teeth extractions with little or no discomfort, or even awareness of the procedure.
