Sedation

Oral Sedation is considered as one of the oldest of all routes of drug administration, the mouth. It’s very safe, economical, and convenient. Oral sedation, when properly used, can deliver a deeper relaxation state than nitrous (laughing gas) and provide some amnesic effects. If you suffer more from the thought of coming in than actually being here, this may be just the choice for you. After an initial consultation to determine the appropriate anxiety relief option, we will take baseline vital signs and write a prescription.

Although awake, you will feel relaxed and drowsy. During your treatment, we will continuously monitor your pulse and oxygen saturation rate, and continually monitor your blood pressure with state of the art patient monitors. We never leave your side.

Benefits of Sedation Dentistry:

  • Eliminate fear of dental treatment
  • Eliminate history of traumatic dental experiences
  • No need getting numb; requires multiple injections
  • Ease very sensitive gag reflex or difficulty opening (can’t even take x-rays at times!)
  • Operation on extremely sensitive teeth
  • Solution for complex dental problems; or a need for surgery
  • Solution for embarrassment about your teeth & smile but fear prevents you from pursuing rehabilitation
  • In denial of a dental problem until the pain is unbearable
  • Eliminate self-neglect; anxiety and fear prohibit all measures of professional dental hygiene and prevention
  • Opportunity to receive professional dental care in many years, perhaps decades
  • Go from dentist to dentist all over the Dallas/Ft. Worth area to renew painkiller prescriptions for dental problems
  • Have been labeled a drug seeker because fear leads you to seek pain meds but never permanent solutions
  • Often make and then cancel dental appointments at last minute
  • Been dismissed by dental offices for (fear-induced) cancellations
  • Make numerous, lengthy phone calls to the dentist's office
  • Experience sweaty palms or find yourself gripping the armrests
  • Have ever fainted in a dental or medical office
  • Can’t open wide for even short dental appointments due to TMJ pain and dysfunction
  • You constantly use mouth mints to suppress the malodor secondary to oral disease
  • Although not extremely anxious, you simply want the Cadillac of comfort with dental care

Client Testimonial

I was very happy with the results of my “Night Guard.” I had pretty severe headaches/jaw pain before using it, but after using it for a week, the pain in my jaw / headaches stopped.
