I have horrible anxiety about going to the dentist, bordering on a phobia, and I switched dentists to Dr. Gergan after an extremely painful botch job by my previous one. Coming out of two years of insanity with our lock downs and restrictions I am now restructuring my life to have more healthy relationships with the people in my life and I believe one's doctor should not be revered like some village elder but instead one should have a healthy relationship much like one does with one's lawyer which. Although this relations should be based on respect, the customer should still get proper value for their money. I found Dr. Gaegan did a fantastic job of walking me through the steps of how he freezes, why the bottom teeth are harder to freeze (the jaw bone is less porous), what medication to take prior to arriving and at what intervals. He even suggested that I come a little earlier for the freezing as it can take 20-30 mins to take effect. It's amazing how treating human beings which just a little bit extra bit of dignity goes such a long way. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for good dentists and good hygienists.
