Do you avoid making dental appointments? Dental anxiety causes many people to put off dental treatment. Sedation dentistry offers an excellent way to provide a safe, anxiety-free, dental experience to those who are afraid of the dentist.
The sedatives we use in oral conscious sedation can be taken by mouth, meaning no injections, no anxiety, and no pain. Some sedatives work so efficiently that you may not even remember the smells and details of the procedure afterward. Your comfort and well-being are of great importance to the Troy, OH sedation dentist, so safety and compliance are two important aspects of treatment.
Oral Conscious Sedation
Oral conscious sedation is an excellent choice for people who fear needles. Oral medication is provided before treatment to induce a state of moderate sedation. This means that most patients cannot remember the pain, smells or noises associated with the procedure. A dose of medication should be taken before the appointment, and then topped up as necessary during the procedure.
Your complete comfort is our highest priority, and we can use any one of these methods, or a combination if that better suits your needs. If you would like to learn more about the benefits of being sedated during treatment, please contact the Troy, OH sedation dentist, and we will be happy to discuss your options.
