Liz of Northbridge’s Dental Implant Makeover
Having dental needs while suffering from dental phobia has been a challenge for our patient Liz, a stay-at-home mum from Northbridge. The thought of visiting a dentist filled her with anxiety. However, an accident that led to the loss of two teeth on the upper right side of her mouth left her with no choice but to seek dental help. The gap affected her ability to smile confidently and impacted her daily life.
Understanding the severity of her situation, Liz’s family referred her to Pitt St Dental Centre. They knew the importance of finding a dentist who could provide professional care and a compassionate approach to ease her fears. With a mix of apprehension and hope, Liz scheduled a consultation, determined to overcome her phobia and regain her confidence to smile freely.
During the consultation, Dr Michael Cai conducted a thorough examination and listened attentively to Liz’s concerns. Aware of her dental anxiety, Dr Cai and the team ensured a comforting and reassuring environment. After discussing various treatment options, they recommended the placement of two dental implants to replace the missing teeth. To address her anxiety, Dr Cai suggested performing the surgery under IV sedation, ensuring a painless and stress-free experience for Liz.
