I’ve been avoiding the dentist for years. Because of that my teeth are in bad shape and look horrible. I think I need to have cosmetic work done, because it is starting to affect my business prospects. So, what do you recommend? Can dental chickens have pain free cosmetic work?

Dan,

Yes, dental chickens can have pain free cosmetic work done. There is a bigger problem though—all the dental work you’re likely to need. The cosmetic work won’t last. In fact, your teeth won’t last if you don’t get them healthy.

Don’t tune me out yet, I have good news for you! You can even have pain free dental work done. Some dentists perform sedation dentistry. You simply take a pill, which completely relaxes you and are able to get your work done without any pain.

There’s an added benefit. Because of how much work you’re likely to need, sedation allows you to get more work done in a single appointment, which will save you time and money in the long run.
