Virtually Pain Free Dental Care...
 We
know that many patients are apprehensive about receiving dental care.
At Dr. Bowden and Dr. Osmunson's, we pride ourselves on our
ability to make each patient as comfortable and relaxed as possible
while receiving care.
First, we listen to your concerns. We then discuss different methods for
making you as comfortable as possible. Together, we lay out a
treatment plan that will meet your needs. We have several options:
1. Dr. Bowden And Dr. Osmunson's Anxiety
Free Dental Care Program
Many of Dr. Bowden and Dr. Osmunson's patients prefer to relax through their dental care. Aesthetic Dentistry of Lake Oswego offers a Anxiety free Care Program where qualified patients can
just take a small pill and relax and in many cases have all of their
dental needs taken care of in just one appointment. If this
sounds right for you, just

2. Dr. Bowden And Dr. Osmunson's Famous Virtually Painless Injection
Most of our patients never know they
have received an injection. That's because of Dr. Bowden and Dr. Osmunson's famous
virtually "Painless Injection" technique. A topical anesthetic
is applied to the tissue with a swab. This anesthetic painlessly
numbs the spot where the doctor will give you one of the most gentle
injections.
3. Local Anesthetic For Pain Free Care
Injectable anesthetics, such as Lidocaine, prevent pain in a specific area of your mouth during
treatment by blocking the nerves that sense or transmit pain and
numbing mouth tissues.
They cause the temporary numbness often referred to as a "fat lip"
feeling. Injectable anesthetics may be used in such procedures
as filling cavities, preparing teeth for crowns or treating gum
disease.
