Sedation Dentistry
“Sleep through your dental visit and wake up to a brand new smile!”
At Brock Starr Dental Care, we understand the anxiety and fear that sometimes accompanies a trip to the dentist. We do everything we can to ensure a painless and comfortable procedure for our patients, and sedation is one of the ways we can accomplish this.
Through sedation, you won’t feel any discomfort and likely won’t remember the treatment itself at all. This method also allows multiple procedures to be completed in a single visit, including:
- Whitening
- Replacing crowns or dentures
- Fixing chipped or damaged teeth
- Restoring sore gums to good health
We use a type of sedation called twilight anesthesia. This technique induces a state of relaxed restfulness without the patient being fully asleep. It will also create amnesia of the procedure and carries fewer risks than general anesthesia. It is a wonderful solution for apprehensive patients.
Children can also benefit from sedation. For the very nervous child, oral sedation or Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas) can help create a seamless and stress-free experience. Once the child is asleep, the procedure can begin. By relaxing them in this way, children can learn that they have nothing to fear at the dentist.
