Don't avoid the dentist due to fear of pain. A sedation dentist can make the treatment easy and relaxing.

Sedation Dentist

If you struggle with dental anxiety, then our sedation dentistry may be able to help. With sedation dentistry, we can help you relax and not feel any sensation while we work on your teeth. Our goal is to help ensure you receive the proper care you need in a comfortable setting.

Far too often, people let dental anxiety hold them back from receiving the professional dental care they need. Thanks to sedation dentistry, we can help patients with dental anxiety receive proper dental care. Even with a dental checkup, we can consider lighter versions of sedation for short term appointments.

In most cases, the effects of sedation will begin to wear off immediately after the appointment. However, we may recommend you have someone who can drive you home. To determine if you are a candidate for sedation dentistry, we will need to review your medical history, current condition, any concerns, and other information.

By gathering this information, we will be able to determine if any form of sedation dentistry will work for you. While there are several forms of sedation dentistry available, the type we use will depend entirely on the procedure.

Our team will have a trained professional who administers the sedation and ensures that everything goes smoothly during the appointment. After completing the procedure, you may want to have some form of ride arranged to get you home. Even if the sedation is minor and will wear off fairly quickly, you may need transportation home.
