Hospital

Dentistry

Most children are able to have their dental treatment completed in the dental office with tell-show-do and/or mild anti-anxiety agents. However, for some infants, children, adolescents, and persons with special health care needs, treatment under general anesthesia in a hospital or outpatient facility represents the best method to deliver oral health care. The patient's age, dental needs, disabilities, medical conditions, and/or anxiety that render the patient unable to cooperate in the dental office may be an indication for the patient to be treated under general anesthesia. Drs. Miller and Cook are both on Staff at St. Mary's Hospital in Evansville, Indiana. Dr. Cook is also on staff at Deaconess Hospital in Evansville, Indiana.
