Sedation Dentistry

If you answer “Yes” to any of the following questions, Conscious Sedation or IV Sedation may be for you:

• Are you afraid of going to the dentist?
• Has it been a long time since your last dental appointment?
• Do you have sensitive teeth or gums?
• Are you immune to traditional methods of numbing techniques?
• Have you avoided needing dental care because of the sights, sounds, and smells of the dentist office?
• Would you like large or complicated dental procedures completed in the fewest visits?

You are a candidate for Sedation if:

• You have a busy schedule – the treatment can be completed in one or two visits
• You start to get anxious when someone even mentions “The Dentist”
• You have had previous traumatic dental experiences
• You have a bad gag reflex
• You have complex dental problems
• You have a fear of needles and shots
• You have a hatred of noises, smells, and tastes associated with dental care
• You are embarrassed about your teeth or smile
