What to Expect With Sedation Dentistry
Sedation dentistry focuses on enhancing your comfort during dental procedures by using medication to help you feel calm and at ease. It is often used to alleviate anxiety and help patients tolerate longer or more complex treatments. Some forms of sedation simply help you relax while remaining fully awake, while others may place you in a deeper state of relaxation or even sleep. The specific approach will be tailored to your individual needs based on your health history and the nature of your treatment.Before beginning any procedure with sedation, our experienced dentists will thoroughly review your medical background, discuss your concerns and determine the best way to help you feel safe and confident during your visit.
