Sedation Dentistry

Sedation dentistry is a safe way to reduce the fatigue and anxiety of extended dental treatment. You are given a small pill to take an hour prior to your dental appointment. (We will ask you to arrange for a friend or family member to drive you to and from your appointment.) By the time you arrive, you will be very drowsy. We will escort you into a treatment room, where you will be placed on a monitor so that we can watch your vital signs. After you are comfortable, your treatment will begin. Once treatment is completed, you will have little or no memory of the experience. You generally won't remember any sounds or smells.

In this way, busy people can accomplish most or all of their dental treatment in one well-planned visit.
