No need for anxiety anymore
The good news, if you have a dental phobia, is that you’re not alone and there’s nothing to be ashamed of. Dentistry is invasive and sometimes painful, and some studies estimate that more than half of Americans fear going to the dentist.
What is Sedation Dentistry & how can it help me?
If you come in for sedation dentistry, we will go over your options for sedation and pick the option right for you. Once you’re at the chosen level of sedation, your dentist will begin your procedure and you’ll return to full consciousness with the whole thing behind you. Sedation dentistry allows you to experience dental work without seeing, hearing or feeling whatever is happening inside your mouth. At higher levels of sedation, you can even walk out of the office with no memory whatsoever of the procedure.
Another perk of sedation dentistry is that it allows procedures that would normally take several visits, to be performed all at once. Even something that might take hours will only feel like it lasts a matter of minutes when you’re under dental sedation.
