We address all phases of dental care. Treatment of the apprehensive or dental phobic patient is emphasized. With techniques ranging from oral sedation to nitrous oxide/oxygen inhalation, from intravenous anesthesia to TLC, the anxieties associated with dental treatment are minimized or eliminated.
Once anxiety and awareness are controlled, necessary treatment can be accomplished in a comfortable and efficient manner. We have worked hard to provide a relaxing environment with an attentive, sensitive staff.
Charles Azzaretti has been practicing dentistry in Mount Kisco in Westchester County since 1989. He is a dentist who gets it that the practice of dentistry is a personal interaction, a relationship. With 33 years of experience Dr. Azzaretti understands that patients dont come to a dental office for procedures they come for dental care. They come for the simplest most effective treatments that meet their needs. They come for counsel as to treatment decisions for themselves or loved ones: what to do for an aged parent with a failing dentition, how to take care of a handicapped child that might have a toothache,whether a cosmetic treatment plan is in your best interest These concerns are unique to each person. The dentistry is important but the focus on the right dentistry for each patient is the relationship.
Dr. Azzarettis years of post graduate education and extensive continuing education over three decades mean that he has developed a deep base of experience and knowledge in clinical care. Pain and anxiety are often foremost in patients minds when dental care is necessary. As a board certified dental anesthesiologist (ADBA 1996) Dr. Azzaretti is very focused on the proper management of pain and anxiety associated with dental treatment.
His longstanding commitment to continuing education in dental procedure and knowledge was recognized when he passed an extensive examination to become a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD 2009).
