For men and women who don't receive regular dental check-ups, the thought of going to the dentist may bring up memories of the piercing sound of a drill, images of torturous exam chairs, and the smothering sensation of an x-ray's protective leaden blanket. For those who do, keeping a dental appointment often means endless waiting room delays, abandonment in the exam room, and inexplicable poking with sharp instruments - in all, a burdensome and annoying encounter. But both scenarios are changing, thanks to innovators like Dr. Shilpa Trivedi and her colleagues at Preferred Dental Care (www.PreferredDentalCare.net) in Flushing, NY. With the maxim, "We care for people, not just the teeth," Dr. Trivedi and her team are transforming the drudgery of a dental visit into something more like to a trip to the spa. "While we offer a full range of dental services under one roof, our emphasis is on more than one-stop dental care," says Dr. Trivedi. "We want our patients to feel calm and at home, as though they are coming to spend time with family." This definitely isn't your mother's dentist. With a gorgeous aquarium, fresh flowers, striking paintings, soulful music, and delicious snacks, Preferred Dental Care emphasizes patient relaxation. Luxurious leather chairs take center stage in the exam rooms, alongside televisions, computers, and state-of-the-art dental equipment. "Our upscale, modern office is a reflection of our professional commitment to stay in the forefront of dentistry," says Dr. Trivedi. Indeed, she and her colleagues have an average of six years of dental education - two more than most dentists - and a cumulative total of over 70 years of dental experience. In this era of ultra-specialization, Preferred Dental Care also stands apart for offering comprehensive dental care. "Our patients shouldn't have to travel from specialist to specialist to get the care they need," says Dr. Trivedi. While the practice includes general dentists and dental hygienists, it also has an orthodontist who can treat patients who need braces, an implant dentist, an oral surgeon, a periodontist who can help patients who have gum disease, and a prosthodontist who can help patients who needs dentures and crowns. With an on-site laboratory, Dr. Trivedi's colleagues can even provide patients with dentures in 24 hours. "Whether patients want to come in for a quick lunch-hour whitening treatment or need extensive smile makeovers, we're prepared to serve them," she says. While Preferred Dental Care welcomes those who need extensive dental work, the practice emphasizes prevention. "Our core belief is that patient education and prevention are as important as treatment," says Dr. Trivedi. "We want to make our community healthy, which is why we offer free consultations and examinations, as well as educational videos for patients to watch during their exams and treatments." In Dr. Trivedi's experience, most people delay routine dental care because they don't believe they have a problem. "Unfortunately, that misses the point. If you come in every six months for a dental check-up, you won't reach the stage where you have a problem," she says. "You go for manicures, for pedicures, and to get your hair done. Having your teeth looked after is another facet of self-care that makes you feel and look your best." With the spa-like amenities at Preferred Dental Care, there's scarcely a gap between a mani-pedi and a semi-annual cleaning. Indeed, it's a comprehensive service center and "home away from home" for all of your dental needs.
