Approach to Patient Care
Dr. Rools is known for his warm, gentle manner and genuine concern for his patients. Because he works in-house alongside Dental Care of Stamford's general dentists, consultations and treatment planning are seamless: patients who need wisdom teeth removed or a tooth extraction can often coordinate the surgery with their routine visit to reduce the total number of dental office trips. If patients request it, Dr. Rools uses twilight anesthesia so they hardly remember the procedure.
