Save on CEREC Restorations and 3D Cone Beam Scans

Hi! I hope the summer has been treating you well! We’ve been slammed at the office and I’ve fallen behind on our newsletter, but I have some exciting news to share that you might be able to benefit from.

(As a side note, most of this pertains to people in our area. I will be writing another article in the coming days with some news about the FDA and mercury fillings, as well as some new dental tips, so stay tuned for that email in the next week or so).

We recently invested in some exciting new equipment for our practice that allows us to improve the services we can provide and to provide some of those services at a lower cost. To celebrate, we are offering our friends and patients an opportunity to save a good chuck of change on some dental work. What do I mean? Well first, let me explain what we got:

WHAT WE GOT:
We have integrated a 3D Cone Beam scanner into our practice. As many of our patients already know, we have long supported and recommended cone beam scans to help improve diagnostics while decreasing your exposure to radiation. But it was often difficult to schedule an appointment for such images and could be cost prohibitive. Now, with a machine in our practice, we are able to provide high quality scans in less time and often for lower costs.

HOW YOU BENEFIT:
3D Cone Beam scans provide the highest resolution scans possible at the lowest possible radiation levels. This means that we can pinpoint problems easier and be more precise in our diagnosis. These scans are infinitely more detailed than any other dental radiography technology on the market and are available in very few dental practices in the country.

WHAT WE GOT:
After being a “CEREC” doctor for almost a decade, I understand the value of what CEREC brings to a practice and a patient. That’s why we recently upgraded to the latest and greatest machine, the CEREC AC. This machine allows us to take digital impressions for restorations (no more gagging on impressions!) and make precise restorations that look excellent, fit perfectly, and last a long time — all out of biocompatible, metal-free materials and all in very little time.

HOW YOU BENEFIT:
By upgrading our CEREC machine, we are able to do same-day restorations on almost all procedures, including inlays, onlays, crowns, and bridges, often at a lower cost to you. Restorations look outstanding, last a long time, and are biocompatible and metal-free. Fewer visits and a lower cost… that’s a pretty good benefit!

What’s in it all for you? If you have any work you need to have done (do you have a chipped tooth? Do you need a crown replaced? Do you have a missing tooth and need a bridge?) we are offering 13% off on the first CEREC restoration you have done in our practice in July. The offer includes inlays, onlays, bridges, and crowns done on our new CEREC. It’s good for one restoration. It’s good for the first 8 people who respond and schedule an appointment for the month of July.

Keep in mind, we are rapidly filling our July calendar (we have a few appointments left at the end of the month) and we do not plan to extend this offer. So if you have work you need done, please call soon and make sure you get scheduled while we still have spots available and to ensure you are one the first 8 people.

When you call, tell Sasja that you are responding to my email offer and would like to be scheduled in July (you can reach her at 888-825-5351. If she doesn’t pick up right away, she’s probably on the other line. Feel free to leave a message and she’ll call you back as soon as possible).

If you don’t need any work done or you aren’t in our area, I appreciate you reading this far into my email and I hope you’re enjoying your summer. As I mentioned at the beginning of this letter, I promise to have some information about the FDA’s about-face on mercury amalgam fillings as well as some new dental tips and info in the next few days, so stay tuned.

Thanks!
Dr. Marvin

Anxiety and dentisrty

Do you ever get nervous just thinking about going to the
dentist?  You might be worrying unnecessarily. With dentistry’s many advances,
diagnosis and treatment gets more sophisticated and comfortable all the
time.

It’s often best to share your anxiety. If you’re tense or anxious, tell your
dentist and the dental staff. Getting your concerns out in the open will let
your dentist adapt the treatment to your needs.

Try to choose a time for your dental visit when you’re less likely to be
rushed or under pressure. For some people, that means a Saturday or an
early-morning appointment.

If the sound of the drill bothers you, bring a portable audio player and
headset so you can listen to your favorite music. During the dental visit you
might try visualizing yourself relaxing on a warm beach.

These positive techniques work wonders for many. Try them on your next dental
visit.

The Economy Is Affecting Dentistry

The last few days I have taken advantage of the time off to take some really good continuing education courses.  The first one is an Invisalign course and the second was a course by PerioProtect.

While at the meeting I was able to hear what other dentists and dental offices are going through in this new economy.

Many of them are noticing a slow down in the number of patients and lower bottom line numbers.

So if you ever wanted to do any dentistry and were afraid that it’ll take too long for you to get an appointment, now may be a great time to schedule.  Chances are, there are plenty of open spots for you.

If you don’t have a San Diego dentist, try checking us out.

Why Become A Patient

Improve Your Health, Brighten Your Smile… And Become A Patient

At The Center for Natural Dentistry, we take pride in our patients’ health and in the trust you put in us every time you make an appointment. We also take great pride in the long-term relationships we develop with our patients, which is why we take the time to listen to your concerns and your questions before we propose treatment. We want to make sure that our practice is the right fit for you and that you feel comfortable in our office and with our staff. 

Why Choose The Center for Natural Dentistry?

There are hundreds of dentists who would be happy to take your dental well-being into their hands, so why should you choose The Center for Natural Dentistry? Here are the Top 10 Reasons:

1. We don’t like the drill anymore than you do. While some dentists seem to grab their drill before you even have a bib on, we do our best to keep your mouth a “no-drilling zone.” We always provide safe, natural alternatives before using a drill as a last resort.
2. Our Office Won’t Make You Sick. Even if you don’t have any amalgam (silver) fillings in your teeth, your dentist probably deals with them on a regular basis, which means that every time you sit down in a dental chair, you are inhaling dangerous mercury fumes. At The Center for Natural Dentistry, we adhere to a strict Patient Protocol that ensures you won’t inhale the mercury fumes that can cause serious illness.
3. Full-Body Wellness. We consider your full-body wellness every time we recommend a treatment. Proper dental care can add as many as 10 years to your life… that’s proper dental care. That’s why we always consider how any treatment will affect you entire wellness when we present treatment options. Most dentists just “fix the problem.” At The Center for Natural Dentistry, we “treat the cause.” Further, we always test our materials to ensure that whatever we use is compatible with YOU… there is no “one-size-fits-all” mentality at The Center for Natural Dentistry.
4. Your Body is Natural, Your Doctor Should be Natural. Don’t get us wrong, we believe in science-based medical and dental practices (Dr. Marvin and Dr. Godes are a fully-licensed dentists). But your body is a natural entity. If there is a scientifically proven natural remedy for your symptoms, we believe that should always be your first option. That’s why we will always present you with natural, holistic options as well as traditional dental options. It’s your mouth, your treatment is ultimately your choice. We will present the options so you can make an educated decision of your health.
5. Holistic Treatment is Time Tested and Proven. For centuries holistic practices have been used for all sorts of medical and dental symptoms. In the Western World, science-based medicine has become the dominant player for decades, but the tide is again turning to holistic approaches. Dr. Marvin and Dr. Godes understand that not all problems can be solved naturally, which is why The Center for Natural Dentistry has implemented a healthy blend of traditional holistic approaches with western science, ensuring you always get the best possible treatments for your dental problems.
6. It’s Stress-Free. Why should a trip to the dentist keep you up at night worrying? We want you to feel comfortable with our office, our staff, and our practices, which is why we’ve created a “dental spa” that makes your dental trips as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
7. Cutting Edge Technology. At The Center for Natural Dentistry we have cutting-edge technology to ensure safe, effective, pain-free dentist visits. We have the latest CEREC machine, a 3D Cone Beam CT scanner for diagnostics, a top-notch laser, and a host of other high-end, top-quality tools to provide the best treatment possible. You won’t see outdated equipment or outdated techniques… you will ALWAYS get the best of the best.
8. Experience and credentials you can trust. Dr. Marvin’s fascination with the practice of natural dentistry is firmly intertwined with his credentials as a professional dentist. Dr. Marvin and Dr. Godes are active in numerous leading-edge holistic and biologic dental associations and maintain a rigorous continuing education schedule to ensure they are always at the forefront of the best care possible.
9. We don’t pontificate. We innovate! While others may talk the talk, we actually walk the walk. Dr. Marvin has spent years of his life exploring the links between gum disease and systemic disease and, consequently, developing natural solutions to the real demands of oral hygiene and dental health.
10. You Can Check Us Out For Free! You read that right. It’s free to visit our office and take a tour. We know that holistic dental care is outside the norm for many people and we want to dispel the myths about natural dentistry. That’s why we always offer a FREE “office tour” to new patients. Come in, take a tour of our office, ask questions of our staff, and find out if The Center for Natural Dentistry is right for you.
