Sedation Dentistry is something that we offer our patients to help them experience a less intimidating visit to the dentist. Some people are vehemently opposed to visiting the dentist because of their genuine fear. This fear, which is called “dentophobia,” most likely stemmed from bad past or childhood experience/memory or even from own observations of things done inside a dental clinic. It is not at all uncommon to feel this way. This is the main reason why sedation dentistry exists. We want to fully communicate with our patients, understand their fear or anxiety, and do something to ease this fear.
Since it has always been our goal to prioritize the comfort and well-being of our patients, we are committed to helping them with their dental care needs while simultaneously making them feel comfortable and less anxious through different techniques. Some of those techniques involve relieving their dental anxiety by offering them various medications or sedation options. These sedation options can help calm their nerves whenever they have to undergo dental treatments.
