How Dr. Kim approaches anxious patients
At Halcyon Dental, we understand the fear and discomfort many people experience when visiting the dentist.
It starts with a free consultation. We review your medical and dental history and any X-rays, talk through your goals, and recommend the right level of sedation for you: oral, IV, or both.
On the day, you rest comfortably while we work and monitor you closely. Dr. Kim holds an Illinois IV Conscious Sedation Permit, is ACLS certified, and has been a licensed dentist for more than 20 years.
We believe everyone deserves quality dental care without being nervous or scared.
