Sleep through your next dental visit with sedation dentistry.

Don’t let dental anxiety stop you from getting the care you need!

Many people experience common fears when visiting the dentist, often stemming from past traumatic experiences, the anticipation of pain, or anxiety about the procedures themselves. The sound of dental instruments, fear of needles, and concerns about the potential for discomfort can all contribute to dental anxiety. Additionally, some individuals worry about being judged for their oral hygiene habits or the cost of treatments. These fears can lead to avoiding necessary dental care, ultimately exacerbating oral health issues.

What our patients are saying

Things you might be wondering about sedation dentistry

Sedation can assist with most dental procedures, including fillings. Depending on the length of the procedure and other factors, a dentist can recommend the best approach for each patient. Since even routine procedures can cause anxiety for some, sedation is an excellent option for alleviating that stress.

Dentists determine the safest and most effective dosage and type of sedation for each patient. While there are typically no lasting side effects, patients may feel dizzy, drowsy, or nauseous for up to four hours after the procedure. These effects can vary from person to person.

In most cases, you should continue taking your medications as usual. It’s important to inform the dentist about all the medications you are taking so they can advise you if any changes are needed on the day of the procedure.
