Has dental phobia kept you from getting the treatment you need? Does the thought of dental care leave you anxious? Have you arranged bookings only to cancel them at the last minute?
Our team understands, which is why we offer sleep dentistry.
Sleep dentistry may be the solution you’ve been looking for.
Of course, there are other reasons besides anxiety to consider sleep dentistry.
Consider the following situation:
- Lengthy and invasive treatments
- Undergoing multiple treatments during a single clinic visit
- A strong or active gag reflex during treatment
How Sleep Dentistry Works
Sleep dentistry is a step above sedation dentistry options, such as nitrous oxide, because you sleep through your dental treatment. While the team attends to your dental care, an anesthetist ensures you are comfortable and asleep. Of course, you are closely monitored throughout treatment, and we take a thorough health history, including your current medications, before determining your candidacy for sleep dentistry.
About Dental Phobia and Anxiety
Our compassionate team has a unique understanding of dental anxiety and is always eager to make patients feel relaxed and comfortable during their time under our care. We hope that our approach, combined with sleep dentistry, enables you to reclaim your oral health and resume regular care.
Dental phobia and anxiety may result from:
- An abrupt or painful dental experience in the past
- A strong or elevated gag reflex
- Embarrassment over the state of your smile after years away from the dentist
We are a judgment-free dental team dedicated to providing you with the best care and smile. Our dentists understand how anxiety causes patients to forgo treatment. With us, you’re in caring hands!
