Fear has no boundaries.It can affect all types of people.Research shows that almost 30% of our population avoids going to the dentist due to fear, avoiding needed care.Fortunately, there is an option, Oral Sedation Dentistry.

Oral Sedation Dentistry begins with your first visit when information regarding your health is gathered and you discuss your wants and desires relating to your oral health.If you're comfortable, a look in your mouth and x-rays may be taken at this visit.

Next, a prescription for a sedative to take the night before your first appointment is given to guarantee a good night's sleep and to make sure you wake up relaxed.You'll need a friend/companion to bring you to the dentist office the next day. Once you arrive at the office additional medications are provided to create the ultimate in relaxation.An experienced sedation team monitors you throughout your entire visit.Sedation medications have an amnesic effect that means you'll have very little, if any, memory of the sights, smells or sounds of your visit.

After your treatment is complete you might be a bit wobbly, so your companion will take you home and stay with you until you're completely recovered from your sedation medication.You'll be amazed at how much can be accomplished in such a seemingly short period of time, while you are totally relaxed, and completely comfortable.And best of all, the very next day you will not only feel fantastic, you'll have the fabulous smile you always wanted.
