La Mesa, CA (PRWEB) December 05, 2012

Sedation dentist, Richard Hagstrom, DDS, has announced the launch of a new, patient-focused website created by dental website design leader, ProSites, Inc. Dr. Hagstroms practice is utilizing the website to educate the community on the importance of oral health. The website includes a links page with informative dental resources as well as a frequently asked questions page to address common concerns on topics ranging from oral hygiene to difficult dental procedures.

Today more than ever, patients are aware of their dental options because of the internet, Dr. Hagstrom says. Unfortunately, there are not a lot of simple resources where patients can explore straight forward information regarding their teeth. We have engineered a site that just presents the facts, where patients can learn about dental procedures. Hopefully this will not only add knowledge, but reassurance that dentistry is not as scary as it seems. We have many different ways to make our patients comfortable during their dental care!

The website possesses interactive attributes including educational dental videos, past newsletters and information regarding the offices services to help patients make better informed decisions about their oral health. Current and prospective patients now have access to information about financing, helpful dental links, CEREC Same Day Crowns in La Mesa, before and after photos of dental procedures, and other informative content when they visit the website. Some of the services offered by Dr. Hagstrom include:

Sedation Dentistry

CEREC Same Day Crowns

Invisalign

Dental Implants

Oral Surgery

The website also utilizes extensive search engine optimization techniques to reach patients and local consumers who are searching for relevant information about sedation dentistry in La Mesa.

The number one reason patients do not keep up on their regular dental care is dental phobia, or fear of the dentist, Dr. Hagstrom continues. Virtually no one ever admits their fear, they just do not go! It is very easy for dental patients to search for a dentist via the internet, in the comfort and safety of their home. Once they learn from our site that dental care can be completed easy and comfortable with the aid of Oral Conscious Sedation, it will be easier for them to make and keep their dental appointments. With my 25+ years of experience, weve found once the patient comes into our office, they have found it is not as bad as they thought and will proceed with the treatment they need to get their teeth back in shape.
