Sedation Dentistry

Sedation Dentistry is a very safe method whereby pills are used to help you achieve a completely relaxed and comfortable state to receive your dental work. We will be happy to explain the details and benefits of Sedation Dentistry.

Common questions regarding Sedation Dentistry:

Q: Will I be groggy after my treatment is over?

A: You will feel just fine. For your safety, we do require that you have a family member drive you home and stay with you for a few hours.

Q: Is Sedation Dentistry safe for me?

A: Before starting any treatment, we review your medical history completely to determine if you are a candidate.

Q: Will I be totally relaxed?

A: You’ll receive just enough sedation so that you will be completely unaware of the treatment as if it were a dream.

Q: Will I remember anything?

A: At the end of the treatment, you’ll have little to no memory of the dental visit.

Q: Will I feel any pain?

A: Most patients feel no discomfort whatsoever during their treatment and feel surprisingly good afterwards.

Q: Will my insurance cover this treatment?

A: We will review your insurance coverage, then, if necessary, make financial arrangements to ensure you get the dental care you need.
