Wouldn't it be wonderful to never dread the dentist again? That's only one of the many benefits of sedation dentistry at Crabapple Dentist. And if it's been a while since your last dental visit, Dr. Sarah Roberts can correct any resulting damage or decay, usually in just one or two visits.
Whether you need a cavity filled, dentures fitted, treatment for sore gums - or even cosmetic procedures to whiten your teeth or fix a chipped tooth, you'll be amazed at how much dental work can be accomplished while you are calmly sedated.
Here are a few frequently asked questions about sedation dentistry.
1. Who should try sedation dentistry?
Everyone is different. Some people avoid the dentist because they suffer from paralyzing fear. Some have had a traumatic experience. Others have a low pain tolerance or resistance to the numbing injections that dentists use. Some patients can’t control a gag reflex, and still others are embarrassed about the condition of their teeth.
No matter your reason, there’s no need to feel embarrassed. The good news is, sedation can help us accomplish complete car and restoration in a comfortable, anxiety-free visit.
2. How long will it take?
Each case is different, but typically sedation lasts from two to six hours, depending on the condition of your teeth.
3. Is sedation dentistry safe?
Dr. Sarah Roberts has completed an advanced training program that allows her to treat patients while they are safely sedated. The Dental Advanced Life Support Certification represents the same training that doctors, nurses and paramedics receive.
4. Do I need someone with me?
Someone should accompany you to and from the dentist’s office, since you will have taken a sedation pill and don’t want to risk driving.
5. Will I be unconscious?
There are varying degrees of sedation, and you can discuss which one is right for you in a consultation with Dr. Roberts. Either way, you’ll remain in a deeply relaxed state throughout the procedure.
Don't wait another moment to learn about sedation dentistry. Call Dr. Sarah Roberts at 678-319-0123 or email us to schedule a consultation.
Sedation dentistry might be a great option for me. I tend to avoid the dentist, because I'm terribly claustrophobic. I'll have to look into this subject a little more.
