Sedation Dentistry

Many people avoid going to the dentist and taking care of their teeth and gums because of fear.

With the use of sedation dentistry, your dental experiences can be a safe, comfortable, and relaxing experience.  It is available to help calm and ease patient fears of the dental visit. Sedative drugs such as anti-anxiety medications or Nitrous Oxide may be given to each individual determined by your level of anxiety.  If you simply need something to take the edge off, then nitrous oxide gas may be all you need. If you need something to relieve a lot of fear and anxiety, then Conscious sedation may be your answer. It is oral sedation that leaves you alert enough to follow simple tasks, such as turning your head, but you will not remember any of the sights, smells or sounds associated with the visit.
Going to the dentist does not have to be feared any more. Discuss your options with me and we can come up with a solution to make your dental visits a positive experience.

If left untreated, sleep apnea can result in a growing number of health problems.
