DOCS
Sacramento, Roseville, Rocklin, Lincoln, Stockton, Modesto, California
The Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation (DOCS) is an organization dedicated to training dentists in the use of sedation dentistry.
How it started
Dr. Michael Silverman and Dr. Anthony Feck founded DOCS in 1999 after years of treating anxious, fearful patients in their individual practices. Their goal is to promote dental work to individuals who fear the dentist, by providing pain-free dentistry.
- Dental oral sedation provides many benefits including:
- A more comfortable patient
- The ability to perform more dental procedures in a single visit
- Bigger restorative cases from patients who were previously reluctant
- Patients who feel little to no post-operative discomfort
- Increased referrals and subsequent patients
Oral sedation on the rise
Though there are different techniques used for dental sedation, oral sedation is becoming more and more popular because of its safety and effectiveness. DOCS’ mission is to ensure that every patient as access to comfortable and anxiety-free dental treatment. With this goal in mind, DOCS works to promote sedation dentistry by means of:
- Literature
- Seminars
- Certification courses
Throughout the years, DOCS has trained over 10,000 dentists in the use of safe oral sedation.
Background in science
All of DOCS’ programs have been created by countless hours of study and research by industry professionals. These doctors and scientists have carefully studied the science and methodology of:
- Oral sedatives
- Pain management and control
- Patient psychology
Throughout the years, as the science has evolved, the DOCS curriculum has changed to reflect those advances. It has expanded to cover a broader spectrum of protocols and in-depth patient case studies.
Someone you can trust
DOCS’ ultimate mission has always been the same: to make sure that every patient has access to safe, comfortable, anxiety-free dental care. Patients who choose oral sedation walk away happy and confident that they have found a practice where they can feel safe with staff and doctors they can trust.
If you fear the dentist, or have experienced a traumatic episode in the past, oral sedation can help ease your anxiety. If you live in the Roseville, California area, please contact our office today for a consultation.
