Enjoy A Relaxed Experience With Sedation Dentistry
CREATING POSITIVE DENTAL EXPERIENCES WITH EVERY VISIT
Sedation dentistry is a wonderful way to help people who have a fear of the dentist receive the dental care they need. With sedation dentistry, patients can be completely relaxed during treatment, with no pain, no gagging and no anxiety. Sedation dentistry has made it possible for Richmond dental patients to overcome their fear of dental work and get much-needed dental care. With oral conscious sedation, we can complete multiple procedures at the same time, while you are relaxing comfortably.
Our dentists recommend sedation based on your level of anxiety and your specific treatment plan. If you have difficulty stepping into a dental office regardless of the reason for your visit, medication is available which can be taken before your appointment. You’ll feel relaxed before you even enter our office and comfortable throughout your visit.
Our dentist and dental team make every effort to create positive and stress-free experiences, from our friendly chair-side manner to our advanced technology. We recommend relaxation options on a case-by-case basis for soothing anxiety and promoting complete comfort. Your comfort management is important to our our care team.
SEDATION DENTISTRY PROVIDES MANY BENEFITS:
1. Overcome Fear & Anxiety
We help people overcome their dental fear and anxiety every day. Even if a past experience has kept you from the dentist for a long time, there is no need to be embarrassed. You can be confident in knowing that our team ensures your comfort management with an anxiety-free visit.
2. Ease of Treatment
Whether you struggle with a gag reflex or have sensitive teeth or gums, sedation allows our team to perform dental procedures without the stress you may be used to experiencing. With a relaxed patient, treatment is easier for both the patient and the dentist as it allows the patient to rest, enabling our team to focus solely on the procedure.
3. Comfort and Rest
Feeling comfortable at the dentist? It happens every day at West Richmond Family Dentistry through the use of sedation. Not only will we help you feel comfortable, sedation dentistry allows you to rest quietly and calmly during your treatment. Many patients find their sedation dental experience provides a relaxing break from a busy life.
4. Fewer Appointments
Sedation allows us to perform more treatment in fewer visits. Whether you need a cavity filled, treatment for sore gums, cosmetic procedures to whiten your teeth or fix a chipped tooth, you’ll be amazed at how much dental treatment can be accomplished while you are calmly sedated. More extensive procedures that normally require multiple visits may be completed in as little as one visit with the advancements of sedation dentistry.
