Overdue For Relaxation? Take A Break At Your Dentist!


Sedation Dentistry offers patients the ability to conquer their fear of the dentist. If you break into a cold sweat when someone mentions the word ‘dentist’, Sedation Dentistry may be the solution you’ve been waiting for.  Best of all – no needles!  It’s all accomplished with a pill. 

Many adults today, continue to put off seeing the dentist; some for up to several years. This is generally the case due to the fear and discomfort generally associated with dental restorations. Sedation Dentistry offers the solution to patients suffering from dental anxiety. 

You may benefit from Sedation Dentistry if you;

- Dislike dental Injections
- Detest the noise of dental equipment - drills, suction hoses, etc.
- Gag easily and hate the taste during dental procedures
- Have sensitive teeth
- Cannot handle pain well
-Dislike the smell associated with a dental practice
-Are unable to get numb for procedures
- If you need to undergo a complex dental procedure or a treatment that will consume a long period of time

Sedation dentistry enables patients who have a fear of the dentist to undergo dental treatment. Most patients, who have utilized Sedation Dentistry during a procedure, have no memory of their treatment. Sedation Dentistry can be highly beneficial to patients who have deferred seeing a dentist, yet wish to attain healthy teeth and gums.

So, if this sounds familiar or if your spouse, parent, or friend has been avoiding the dentist because of fear or time constraints, please let them know about Sedation Dentistry.  It’s changing lives and smiles daily!
