Many people feel anxious about going to the dentist. Your feelings may range from slight nervousness to a detrimental phobia that prevents you from attending. We want our patients to be healthy and to receive the dental treatment that they need, which is why we offer sedation dentistry options to help you feel relaxed.
Sedation usually comes in the form of medication that can help you to simply relax or even fall asleep. But most forms of sedation will allow you to stay awake so that you can still follow instructions from our dentist. We will go over your sedation options during a consultation before your treatment and consider your medical history and any medications or allergies before deciding what is the right option for you. Once we have decided on the right type of sedation according to your wanted level of comfort, we will give you specific instructions on how the sedative should be administered. We will carefully monitor you during the procedure to make sure that everything goes well.
Call us at 805-995-3123 to discuss your options for sedation dentistry and how we can help you relax at your next appointment. We will be happy to help you feel comfortable in any way that we can.
