Comfortable Dental Care at Douglas W Hightower DDS...

We know that many patients are apprehensive about receiving dental care. At the Great Smiles of the Emerald Coast, we pride ourselves on our ability to make each patient as comfortable and relaxed as possible while receiving care.

First, we listen to your concerns.  We then discuss different methods for making you as comfortable as possible.  Together, we lay out a Master Treatment Plan that will meet your needs.  We have several options:

Dr. Hightower's Special Sedation Dental Care Program

Many of Dr. Hightower's patients prefer to relax through their dental care.  Douglas W Hightower DDS offers a special Sedation Care Program where qualified patients can take a small pill and relax.  If this sounds right for you, just click here for more information.

Topical Anesthesia

Many of our patients never know they have received an injection.  That's because a topical anesthetic is applied to the tissue with a swab. This anesthetic painlessly numbs the spot where the doctor will give you one of the most gentle injections.

Local Anesthetic To Prevent Discomfort

Injectable anesthetics, such as Lidocaine, prevent pain in a specific area of your mouth during treatment by blocking the nerves that sense or transmit pain and numbing mouth tissues. 

They cause the temporary numbness often referred to as a "fat lip" feeling.  Injectable anesthetics may be used in such procedures as filling cavities, preparing teeth for crowns or treating gum disease.
