COVID-19 Update from Sioux Falls Smiles

To Our Patients,

We understand and deeply respect that you may be concerned about coronavirus in public places, even at our state-of-the-art sterilized office.

Our first priority is always the health and well-being of our patients. And that is a priority we take extremely seriously, even with the current disruptions we’re all experiencing.

It has been a very difficult decision, but we have decided that it is in the best interest of our community, our team, and our patients that we not see patients for the time being.

If you do have a scheduled appointment, we will be reaching out to you directly to get you rescheduled to a future date.

This is just one more way that we can show our high level of care for you … and for everyone in our community. We very much look forward to seeing you, your family, and your friends very soon.

As always, if you have any questions, please call our office at 605-250-4651.

Sincerely,

Dr. Valerie Drake
Sioux Falls Smiles

Relax With Several Dental Sedation Options

We understand that some patients need a little extra help getting comfortable in the dentist’s chair. For those people, we offer three fantastic options for sedation. If you’re one of them, take you choice of:

  • Inhaled Sedation – Gentle laughing gas will give you an all-over feeling of euphoria, but it will wear off quickly so you feel like yourself again in no time.
  • Oral Sedation – Just take a small pill before your procedure or exam, and you’ll be completely relaxed by the time it starts.
  • IV Sedation – For our patients who have severe dental anxiety or are having multiple procedures done, we can put you in a sleeplike state during your visit.

Common Questions About Relieving Dental Anxiety

We have a combination of special comfort amenities, modern treatment techniques, friendly conversations, and competent staff members who always help to put our patients at ease. Plus, we offer a choice of three kinds of sedation to keep you relaxed throughout any procedure at our Sioux Falls office.

Dental sedation can help reduce or eliminate dental anxiety, a gag reflex, or a tendency toward fidgety behavior. Beyond that, it is a completely safe and effective way to ensure that you are comfortable and relaxed at the dentist’s office. Additionally, we will pamper you with soft pillows and warm blankets so that you feel further at home in our cozy office space.

Yes. According to surveys and statistics, millions of Americans have some level of dental anxiety. Some completely avoid the dentist because they are so afraid of going. We know this is true based on patients who have come to our office over the years. We have worked hard to take the fear out of dentistry through listening to our patients, using state-of-the-art technology, and offering a pleasant atmosphere with amenities and sedation.
