We understand how powerful fear of the dentist can be and have dedicated ourselves to providing dental care in a very gentle and caring environment. When that alone is not enough, we recommend oral sedation dentistry.
What is oral sedation dentistry?
Oral sedation should be provided only by dentists with specialized training in sedation care. After a careful screening process we give you medication in pill form that works as a sedative. Our patients who have experienced oral sedation say they love it because:
- It is very safe and effective
- They feel relaxed, but are awake
- It's as easy as taking a pill
- Time goes by quickly
- They often don't remember the appointment later
- It allows them to comfortably get more work done in one visit
Reasons to consider oral sedation dentistry.
- Dental fear or anxiety
- Having a strong gag reflex
- Teeth that are difficult to numb
- Trouble sitting still for long appointments
- Needing a lot of dental work
- Wanting fewer appointments - more can be accomplished in a visit
- You just want to feel more relaxed during your dental care
One of our favorite things about sedation care is that it allows people who have felt their only choice was to neglect their oral health take a stand for themselves. We get to witness patients who felt guilty for letting things go start to feel confident and proud of themselves for their new commitment to health.
We love being able to help people move past their obstacles to dental health and feel good about their smiles again.
If you or someone you know are interested in learning if oral sedation is right for you, we would love to support you.
