Conscious Sedation Dentistry
Who enjoys going to see a dentist? Let’s face it; this is not the way we prefer to spend our time. In fact some people are scared to death to go see a dentist and defer the event as long as possible. The thought of it just ruins their day.
If you are one of these people whose heart beats faster and palms start to sweat just thinking about going to see a dentist; then read on because advances in dental science now make your dental experience more enjoyable.
Palm Desert dentists like Anne A. Nicholas, D.D.S., Scott R. Adishian, D. D.S. and Harry Karna, D.D.S. understand your concerns and have a good understanding of Conscious Sedation Dentistry. Conscious Sedation Dentistry has never been better in Palm Desert, Palm Springs and the Coachella Valley.
Conscious Sedation dentistry is used with moderation for most dental procedures like dental implants, periodontics and prosthodontics (Cosmetic Dentistry). Once you’ve experienced Conscious Sedation Dentistry, your fears will go away and you will even look forward to your next visit.
What is Conscious Sedation Dentistry? Is conscious sedation safe for me? Oral sedation dentistry requires you to take a small pill one hour prior to your dental appointment; no needles or intravenous tubes required. There is no general anesthesia, so no inherent risks are associated with this procedure. Yes it is safe! Most likely you will sleep through the entire dental procedure and you will be in a relaxed state, free of fear, anxiety and apprehension. Dr. Nicholas or one of her qualified staff members will be by your side monitoring the entire procedure, checking blood pressure monitors, pulse oximeter and other state-of-art equipment to insure your comfort and good health.
If you require complex treatment requiring multiple procedures, conscious sedation will allow the dentist to do more treatment per session, cutting down on your total office visits. Imagine being able to visit a dentist, with no fear, sweating palms, rapidly beating heart rate; this will be your experience in Palm Desert with Anne A. Nicholas, D.D.S., Inc.
