Sedation Dentistry

Sedation dentistry utilizes medication to help patients relax during dental procedures. It's sometimes referred to as "sleep dentistry,” Patients are usually awake with the exception of those who are under general anesthesia.  The degree of sedation applied varies significantly from case to case ranging from minimal sedation where patients are awake but relaxed to general anesthesia where patients are completely unconscious. This procedure is ideal for patients with real fear or anxiety that prevents them from adapting the required dental procedure.
