Traditionally, pregnancy has been time when women have been forced to delay even badly need dental treatment. But now, thanks to a new dental instrument called KCP women can take care of those dental problems before the baby arrives.

The KCP is an alternative to the dental drill which uses a microscopically fine powder to gently spray away decay and tooth material. With the KCP, there’s a little heat or vibration and no whining sound.

Best of all, most dental procedures can be performed with the KCP without anesthesia. And there’s so little discomfort after procedures that patients seldom feel they need pain medication. In other words, the dentist can treat you without administering anything that could harm our developing baby.

If you are interested in learning more about this exciting breakthrough in dentistry, please give our office a call.
