What is NuCalm®?

Whether you’re getting a simple cleaning or going to the dentist for an involved procedure, NuCalm® helps you relax. By using calming practices, it helps your body slow down. Then, your body will feel as though you’re ready to fall asleep.

NuCalm® includes four therapies to help you unwind. When you visit the Divine Smiles team, we’ll help you achieve ultimate relaxation. Once your dentist implements these therapies, we will use numbing agents and other tools to make your visit as pleasant as possible.

Dietary Supplements to Ease Your Mind

First, your dentist will give you an all-natural dietary supplement to take. This will increase the number of amino acids in your body, which, in turn, soothes anxiety. Though it helps you relax, it won’t interfere with any of the other medications you take.

Increase Healing with Small Currents

We use a microcurrent stimulation to send extremely small and weak currents throughout your body. Even though it might sound scary, the tiny currents have the ability to relieve pain and increase healing. Additionally, the electrical currents lead you into a state of comfort and calmness. Our patients generally love this step of the process because it’s easy and simple!

Music Helps You Relax

You may or may not have heard of the benefits of music therapy. This therapy benefits patients by managing stress and promoting wellness. Sometimes dentists don’t use this technique because they don’t know how efficient it is when helping their patients.

At our office, we have done a lot of research on the topic. When you see Dr. Clancy, he performs your entire procedure while you listen to calming tunes. The music, specifically designed using proprietary neuro-acoustic software, helps the mind slow down.

Wearing an Eye Mask Gives Extra Comfort

Finally, you will wear a mask or light-canceling glasses to block out visual stimuli. Here at Divine Smiles, we know that big dental equipment is scary. Our goal is to remove any nerve-provoking sights while introducing a calm state-of-mind.
