Sedation Dentistry An Overview
Dental fear is one of the leading reasons patients don’t visit the dentist. Having a reasonable amount of anxiety about visiting the dentist is a normal reaction for many patients. However, when fear and anxiety are preventing you from visiting the dentist, then it may be time to explore your options.
At Plantation Road Dental Care, our entire dental team understands that dental fear and anxiety can be a complicated phobia. Our Destrehan dental office is designed with our patients’ comfort and needs in mind. Our dental office is equipped with state of the art dental technology and comforting amenities to help our patients feel comfortable, relaxed, and stress-free throughout their visit. Sometimes, soothing amenities are not enough to get patients through their visit. In severe cases of dental fear, we may recommend sedation dentistry.
What is Sedation Dentistry? Sedation is a safe, effective way to help patients feel more relaxed throughout their appointment. Sedation dentistry can also allow the dentist to perform multiple procedures during one visit. At Plantation Road Dental Care, we offer nitrous oxide and oral conscious sedation. Our team will work with you to determine which type of sedation best suits your needs. Both forms of sedation all patients to remain comfortable, but capable of responding to the dentist’s questions and commands.
