Hospital Dentistry – Dr. C. Ross has been an Attending on the Sacred Heart Medical Center staff since 1995. He provides dental services in the operating room of the hospital at either the River Bend or University location. Both Hospitals are located in the Eugene Area, River Bend is in Springfield, Oregon and University is Downtown Eugene, Oregon. Patients who cannot be successfully treated in a one of our dental offices can often be treated in a hospital the setting. Our hospital patient’s fall into four major categories; those who are not manageable in an office setting such as the physically and or mentally handicapped, the sick and elderly with high risk medical problems, patients with dental phobias, and young children who are unmanageable in an office environment. Treatment is usually done in one visit. General anesthesia or intravenous sedation is available, and is always provided by members of the Hospital Department of Anesthesia.
If you or a member of your family needs dental treatment in the hospital please call the office for information. We like to see the patient in the office for an evaluation so we can develop the outline of a treatment plan, to determine the amount of operating room time needed to complete the treatment.
Medical High Risk Patients – The range of patients and medical conditions are too many to discuss individually. Our office is experienced in this type of treatment and will work with your medical team to provide safe and effective dental treatment.
