News Release Eau Claire residents should now be even happier about going to the dentist. Dr. Henry has recently completed an advanced training program that allows him to continue treating even more people while they are safely sedated. The program "The Advanced Cardiac Life Support" was sponsored by Doctors of Oral Conscious Sedation (DOCS) and is the same training received by doctors' nurses and paramedics. Dr. Henry is now ACLS certified; a very prestigious level of medical care. Dr. Henry mentions, "We're proud to offer sedation dentistry so that more people can now have their dental care accomplished while they are totally relaxed and absolutely comfortable." For many Americans going to the dentist is a frightful event, even though dentistry has changed so much in the past years. "A visit to the dentist can now be even more relaxing and fun with sedation," says Dr. Henry. Unfortunately, this is not enough for the approximately 145 million people who avoid the dentist due to fear. Dr. Henry adds, "I have always been very sensitive to my patients with high fear and apprehension, and now I can offer them a safe and even more comfortable experience. So many people are avoiding much needed care due to fear. I am looking forward to helping more people visit the dentist with this safe and wonderful technique of sedation." As a member of DOCS, Dr. Henry is among one of the fastest growing organizations of its kind in dentistry. The purpose of DOCS Education is to supply the education necessary for dentists to provide needed care to the large population of people who are avoiding the dentist and to improve their lives with better dental health. "Dentistry is very high tech today with all sorts of gadgets that get the job done better and quicker; but now with sedation dentistry I can bridge the gap between technology and comfort," said Dr. Henry. He added, "You should see the look on the faces of my patients when they complete their care and they have a healthy mouth - there aren't words to describe it! That feeling is why I love dentistry. I helped change someone's life." Dr. Henry and his team are proud of their commitment to our community.
