Dentistry does not have to be painful or scary.
Most fears develop in childhood, so odds are you have carried your dread of the dentist for years. You avoid receiving care and as a result, your dental health deteriorates. When you are no longer able to stand the pain or discomfort and finally seek treatment, extensive restorative work is required. That means more time in the dental chair, more procedures, and more expense, which only furthers your trepidation. It is a nasty cycle and it must be broken.
What is oral sedation dentistry?
You may hear it referred to as comfortable, "anxiety free," or relaxation dentistry, the terms describe the feelings most patients experience during their sedation dentistry appointments. The use of sedative medications can help make you more comfortable so the dentist and his team can work more effectively, accomplishing more in less time with great quality.
Which patients benefit the most from sedation?
People with high dental anxiety and fear
Those with a severe gag reflex
Those with time constraints who need to get more dentistry done in fewer visits
Patients with chronic or acute jaw soreness
Or physical limitations such as back and neck problems
People who have difficulty getting numb
Those who need extensive treatment
And people with a desire to have dentistry done comfortably while they are fully relaxed
If you have ever been afraid to go to the dentist, you know the unbearable terror that comes with stepping foot into a dental office. You avoid receiving treatment at any cost, regardless if you are in pain or discomfort.
