Dental Sedation
Sedation dentistry can mean any type of sedative given by pill, elixir, intravenous, inhaled or otherwise that relaxes patients for dental procedures. Our goal is to provide dental care without fear, pain, or anxiety for our patients. We use a wide range of techniques to provide the most comfortable dental care possible. Many patients have found that dental care with intravenous or general anesthesia may be the most comfortable and relaxing solution to their dental problem. Dr. Siegelman has performed approximately twenty thousand dental sedations and general anesthetics over the last twenty years.
Autism & Dentistry
Many people on the autistic spectrum have a difficult time dealing with dental environment. This is partly due to differences in how people on the spectrum experience, understand and interact with the world in general. It’s important to spend the time with the patient and caregivers, to determine their needs, and establish rapport. Preventive dental care and maintenance is emphasized so that patients need the least amount of invasive procedures possible.
Alzheimer & Dentistry
Currently 5.3 million Americans are afflicted with Alzheimer’s, often leaving family members to make sure that their health and welfare are maintained. It’s very important not to underestimate the severe toll this disease leaves on close relatives and loved ones. Dr. Siegelman and his caring staff understand this and want to help alzheimer patients receive the best quality dental care possible.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry encompasses not only the health of the teeth, but also their aesthetic value. Various products and procedures exist within cosmetic dentistry with the goal of improving both the well-being and visual beauty of the teeth, giving the individual a higher level of self confidence in themselves and their appearance. Some examples of services provided by a cosmetic dentist are Teeth whitening, Porcelain veneers Gum contouring, Tooth-colored fillings, Dental implants, and Bonding.

Louis Siegelman, DDS’s staff completely understands this and wants to help patients calling in with pain, or with a cosmetic dental emergency get the help they need as soon as possible. Many patients may feel stressed because they have put off treatment as long as they could, and now they can’t any longer. We understand. Our priority is to relieve your pain and return you to comfort.
