I have severe anxiety, especially related to dental visits. I needed a lot of work done in 2010 and was searching for a dentist who would understand my situation and help me receive the care that I needed. I found Smile Magic online, and I called on a Sunday (not expecting anyone to pick up the phone). Much to my surprise, not only did someone answer, but Dr. Nazir HIMSELF answered my call. I was living in Napa, CA, at the time, and after a great conversation with this extremely compassionate doctor, I drove all the way to Orange County (8 hours) to have a consultation. Dr. Nazir was genuinely concerned with my mental and physical well-being, and together we decided that iv sedation would be the right path for me. If you have anxiety, panic attacks, OCD, or any special circumstances, I highly recommend this dental staff. I didn't go to the dentist for over 7 years because of many traumatic experiences, and I never thought I would be able to go. But now I completely trust Dr. Nazir and his staff to take care of me and make the experience as comfortable as possible. Also, they have state of the art equipment, including an X-ray machine that eliminates the need for those annoying bite chips, and an HD camera that you can use to look at your teeth up close on a flat screen right in front of you! Amazing!My favorite thing about the iv sedation is the strong amnesia effect. I literally do not remember anything after walking in the front door of the office. The numb feeling in my mouth from novocaine causes me to panic, so not remembering any of the procedure AND regaining my memory AFTER the numbing has worn off is essential to my mental stability. It has completely changed my life and it is worth the extra $$ for my sanity. They are the absolute best at what they do!
