I received a referral through 1−800-Dentist and am very glad I did. At first, I told Dr. Joseph and his staff that I was afraid of dentists and dental pain. because of past bad experiences. I always asked for nitrous oxide, even for teeth cleaning. I have graduated to just a little topical anesthetic on my gums for the cleaning process and I’m not scared any more. I find Dr. Joseph to be gentle, friendly and professional and his dental care has been excellent. I have no dental insurance and he knows of my budgetary considerations, yet he always recommends the best way to save my teeth and avoid future more severe problems. The office offers a senior citizen discount and payment plans if I can’t pay all at once. Anesthesia is no longer an issue because I can use nitrous oxide and Novocaine, or just the Novocaine, depending on how deep the work will be. Dr. Joseph will let me know if he thinks I will need the nitrous, otherwise, I can go with just the Novocaine. I almost like going to the dentist now because of Dr. Joseph and his staff’s care.
