Sedation Dentistry Is Not Just For Anxiety

October 6, 2011

What comes to mind when you think of sedation dentistry? Typically, it’s dental anxiety, which is the number one reason millions of Americans avoid the dentist each year.

But dental anxiety isn’t the only reason patients may want to consider sedation dentistry from Dr. Carmen’s Norman dental office. For some patients, a sensitive gag reflex could be what’s standing in the way of a healthier, stronger smile. With sedation dentistry, though, patients can look forward to enjoying comfortable care at last.

Likewise, for patients who may suffer from neck or back pain and have trouble sitting for long periods of time, sedation dentistry can help. But with IV sedation, we can make it possible for you to sleep comfortably through your appointment, allowing Dr. Carmen to finish more work in less time than it would ordinarily take without sedation dentistry.

It’s also possible for sedation dentistry to help patients who may not be affected by local anesthetics, easing anxieties about pain. You’ll feel so relaxed that your appointment will feel like it only took a few moments.
