We all know that
there is nothing to fear in a visit to the dentist, but some people,
just can’t shake the queasy feeling they get when they sit
down in a dentist’s chair so for these people there is sedation
dentistry.
What is Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation Dentistry bridges the gap between new technology and patient
comfort. After an initial consultation, your Sedation Dentistry
appointment will be scheduled. You are given a small pill to make
you snooze through your dental appointment. Even though you are
not technically asleep, the patients describe the experience as
seeming to be asleep. You will have little or no memory of the appointment.
You will not even remember any sounds or smells.
With Sedation Dentistry, you will find that your treatment is performed
more comfortably than you might ever have thought possible. You
will be drowsy and unaware of the time passing by. During the entire
appointment the specially trained team of professionals on our panel
will monitor you continually.
Sedation Dentistry, or "Sleep" Dentistry, is able to reach
out and provide needed dental care to those who otherwise would
not receive it. It is generally recognized that there are many reasons
why 50% of the population of the developed world and almost 75%
of underdeveloped or developing world do not receive dental care;
for two of the most common reasons that are:
• Extreme anxiety
• No time for multiple appointments
Who is a Good Candidate for Sedation Dentistry? Sedation Dentistry is especially useful for adult patients
who:
Have high anxiety about dental visits
Are afraid of needles
Simply do not have the time for multiple visits
Have had traumatic dental experiences in the past
Have TMJ troubles and cannot open their mouth for extended
periods
Have difficulty getting numb
Have a strong gag reflex
Have sensitive teeth
Hate the noises and/or smells associated with dental care
Sedation Dentistry is only for adult patients. But during the
consultation you will be asked to answer the questions to screen
you for any medical reasons you may not be eligible for Sedation
Dentistry.
Sedation Dentistry Process
You will take the prescribed small pill approximately 1 hour prior
to arriving at the dentist office. You will need to have a companion
drive you to the dentist office since you will not be able to drive
yourself. By the time you arrive at the clinic, you will feel very
drowsy.
The clinical staff will escort you to a comfort room, covered with
a thick, warm blanket and seat you on the chair and a small electronic
sensor will be placed on your fingertip. The sensor provides monitoring
your vital signs during the entire procedure. When you are snoozing
comfortably, only then that the dentist will begin your dental care
procedure. When the Doctor is finished with your treatment, your
companion will drive you home. You probably will not even remember
being to the dentist office.
You will snooze for up to five to six hours after taking the pill.
The time you are snoozing will vary depending on your needed treatment.
Complex dental treatments that often require six to eight appointments,
can be done in as little as one! All while you snooze. People who
have difficulty getting numb will find that sedation dentistry eliminates
this problem. Sedation dentistry is a safe way to reduce the fatigue
of extended dental treatment requiring long visits.
Sedation dentistry is not for everyone, but for those who have been
avoiding getting their teeth fixed because of fear, paranoia or
discomfort this method can be extremely beneficial. So if you are
ready to embrace healthy teeth and gums, relax, with sedation dentistry
you will drift away into dreamland and wake up with a sparkling,
new smile. No wonder so many patients say: "Sedation
dentistry changed my life."
What to expect:
You will be very relaxed, but you will be able to respond. You
will probably not, however, remember any of your visits.
No tubes or needles are necessary for the sedation. You just
simply swallow a pill one hour prior to clinic visit.
Your companion must drive you to the dentist office for your
appointment and return you home afterwards. During the actual
procedure, your companion is free to stay, or leave and come back
to pick you up at the end of the procedure.
Sedation Dentistry is recommended for adults age 18 to 80,
but a careful screening will be performed, during the consultation
phase, for any medical conditions that may prevent you from being
a candidate.
You will feel no discomfort.
You will be sedated for 2 to 8 hours, depending on your dental
care needs.
