Dear Wayne Dental Care Family,

We are excited to announce that we are once again able to provide comfortable dental care for you, our wonderful patients. Wayne Dental Care has reopened on June 8, 2020!

We hope this email finds you and your family in good health. Our community has been through a lot over the last few months, and all of us are looking forward to resuming our normal habits and routines. While many things have changed, one thing at Wayne Dental Care has remained the same: our constant commitment to your safety.

As you have surely seen during your visits to our office, infection control has always been a top priority for our practice. Our strict processes have consistently made the care you receive at Wayne Dental Care both safe and comfortable.

Our office follows infection control recommendations made by the American Dental Association (ADA), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). We continue to closely monitor the recommendations of these agencies so that we are up-to-date on any new rulings or guidance that may be issued.

When it is time for your next appointment, you may see some changes along with our already strict infection control protocols.

Some of these updates include:

  • Our office will communicate with you ahead of your appointment to ask some screening questions. You’ll be asked those same questions again when you are in the office.
  • When entering the office, we will ask you to use hand sanitizer which we will supply. You will also find some in the reception area and other places in the office for you to use as needed.
  • You may see that our reception area will no longer offer magazines, children’s toys and other items which cannot be properly disinfected. You are encouraged to bring your own iPad, reading materials, etc.
  • Should you choose, you may wait in your car and be texted when we are ready to bring you directly to the treatment area.
  • Appointments will be managed to allow for social distancing between patients. That might mean that you’re offered slightly limited options for scheduling your appointment.
  • We will do our best to reduce waiting times for you, as well as to reduce the number of patients in the office at any one time.

We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions you may have about the steps we take to keep you, and every patient, safe in our practice. To make an appointment, please call our office at 610-293-1227 or visit our website at www.waynedentalcare.com

Thank you for being our patient. We value your trust and loyalty and look forward to welcoming back our patients, neighbors and friends in the safest way possible.

Sincerely,
Dr Handel, Dr Brenner and the Team at Wayne Dental Care

Save Endangered Teeth With Root Canals in Wayne

If you have a toothache, the cause may be an infected tooth. While the pain is bad enough, left untreated, your tooth could be lost to infection. It’s even possible for infection to spread to other areas of your head and neck, causing a fever and other unpleasant symptoms. Fortunately, our dentists can restore your tooth to health with root canals in Wayne.

A root canal procedure will:

  • End pain caused by infection inside your tooth
  • Save your tooth structure, which prevents nearby teeth from shifting out of place, bone loss, and other issues
  • Help you avoid the hassle and expense of replacing a missing tooth
  • Prevent the infection from spreading, which endangers your oral health and even your overall health

If you think you may need root canal therapy, call 610-227-6143. A painful tooth is an emergency. Remember, you can usually get a same-day appointment for emergencies. Like other treatments, we offer a lifetime guarantee for a root canal.

Compare a Root Canal Procedure to an Extraction

With their extensive training, our dentists can often save infected teeth. It’s often the best treatment, as preserving a tooth keeps your jaw healthy and nearby teeth in place. Sometimes, though, a tooth is so damaged that it’s necessary to extract it. Our dentists will help you determine which procedure is best for your situation.

You will consider:

  • Extent of Damage – If damage affects the soft pulp inside your tooth but not its overall structure, we’ll likely suggest root canal therapy. For more widespread damage, the tooth may need to be removed.
  • Cost – While a root canal procedure costs more than a simple extraction, adding the cost of replacing a tooth after an extraction will make the costs similar.
  • Recovery – A root canal offers a far easier and quicker recovery than an extraction. You won’t have bleeding or stitches, and discomfort should be minimal.

Stay Relaxed During Root Canal Therapy With Sedation

You’ll receive local anesthesia prior to your root canal, which will thoroughly numb your mouth. We’ll also typically complete your root canal treatment in one appointment, so a second visit to our office isn’t required. If you’re still worried about the procedure, you can also receive dental sedation. We offer a choice of two types of sedation to ensure you’ll be able to get the level of relaxation you need.

For root canals in Wayne, call 610-227-6143.
