Your Dental Anxiety…Resolved!

From moderate to severe dental anxiety, we offer a painless, stress-free experience – one of maximum comfort and safety. Dr. C specifically designed our office to provide patients a calming, relaxing atmosphere!

Dental Anxiety

Laughing Gas Available 😷

We are a local dentist that uses laughing gas, also known as nitrous oxide.

This is a mild dental sedative that helps take the edge off, so you feel stress-free and more comfortable. This option is especially effective for children.

We very carefully administer the laughing gas to a degree in which you feel comfortable and slowly bring you off it once the procedure is done. Super easy!

Oral Sedation Available 🌌

For patients who would like a deeper level of sedation, the combination of laughing gas and sedative pills may be the right choice for you.

This combination will bring you to a state of sleepiness or apathy, meaning you just won’t care about what’s going on.

After your appointment, you’ll have little memory of what happened. More importantly, your dental work is behind you!

Anxiety-Ridden Patients We’ve Treated

After years of avoiding dental work due to horrible experiences at other facilities, lack of insurance and just plain anxiety; I can not say enough good things about celestial dental. To start the front office staff is the most pleasant, accommodating people we have ever come across. When they say we will find you an appointment earlier based on cancellations they really do reach back out ! On top of that my husband was in so much pain after a tooth broke right in the front. They got us in the next day and had a plan ready to go for us. No judgement. They fixed his tooth and it’s never looked better. The day after his tooth got fixed another tooth started causing him intense pain (a tooth they did have a plan to remove in about a month) when he called and told them they got him in that day for an extraction. You can tell this office really cares about the well being of their patients as well as the patients want to look and release good about their smile. I’m so glad we found this place and finally found a place we are comfortable going to keep up with our dental health. I 10/10 recommend coming here !

I cannot say enough good things about Celestial Dental. The office staff are kind and helpful, much more than other medical offices. Every staff member at Celestial Dental treated me with care and compassion. I have had horrific experiences with dental work, which caused severe anxiety and avoiding dental care. I am extremely difficult to numb and I have woken up from deep sedation general anesthesia screaming in pain. Dr. C and Hannah did absolutely everything they could to help with my anxiety and unusual numbing issues. I had an urgent need to get 2 teeth extracted and this was hands down the best experience I have ever had at a dental office. The extraction ended up being extremely difficult, Dr. C had to drill a little into my jaw. I had preciously gone to Oral-Maxillofacial Surgeons who could not extract these teeth. Dr. C and all of his staff helped to ease my anxiety as much as possible. My pain was minimal due to all the careful attention and monitoring by Dr. C and Hannah. I cannot thank Dr. C and all his staff enough for helping me with dental issues I have had for years due to other dental offices not being able to numb me properly. I would give 10 stars if I could!!! Edit to add how cool the space decorations and lighting are. They definitely help with distracting you if you're anxious

This is the best dental practice I have ever been to. I have extreme anxiety when it comes to dental work because of past experiences with other dentists and therefore needed a lot of work done. Dr. C not only is the most compassionate and GENTLE dentist I have ever been to …and he is totally transforming my smile. I cannot believe the difference already in just a couple visits. He constantly checks in with me during procedures to make sure I’m still doing okay and that I’m still numb and not feeling anything. They do whatever it takes to make you comfortable during your appointment, even offering blankets. The place is so clean and comfortable. The waiting room has reclining leather couches but I’m never out there long enough to enjoy them because they always take me right back. They have the most up to date technology. Everyone in the office is so nice from the front desk to clinical staff. I cannot say enough nice things about this practice. I would give it 10 stars if I could. I will never go anywhere else for my dental care.

I had severe pain in my teeth for a few days now. We went to one dentist who was of no help. My mom called Celestial so that way I can get in sooner. And thank you to the amazing staff who actually bumped someone so I could get in and be seen. I also have severe anxiety of the dentist, and had to get a root canal. Thank you to Dr. C who actually calmed my anxiety so much. He made sure I was comfortable and I was so grateful for him and his team. He even took the x-ray cost off the total price for mothers day! Thank you so much Dr. C and his amazing staff. I will come here every time I need something done. Highly recommend! PS: love the space themed office!
