Charlotte's Pain Free Dentistry

Are you afraid of the dentist?  Does the thought of dentist make you nervous?  Then sedation dentistry- also sometimes called twilight or sleep dentistry is for you.  Sedation is a process where we administer medicines to reduce anxiety and apprehension in order for you to be relaxed during the procedure without worry or pain.  It will last long enough to safely complete the dental procedure.

Benefits of sedation dentistry

·         Feeling no pain during the dental process.
·         You will stay calm and at rest during the procedure, making it easier for your Charlotte cosmetic dentists to complete the dental work on time without any hassle and unwanted movements.

Mode of sedation

·         In the form of a tablet that the patient will drink upon arriving at the dentist’s office.
·         In the form of gas for inhalation, which is more popularly known as the laughing gas.
·         In the form of an injection or intravenous (IV).

Sedatives will be administered in the office, sometimes just before coming to the office or even the night before.  After the procedure, you will be allowed to rest before you leave the practice.  It is best to come to the dental facility with a friend or a family member to drive you to and from the dentist to assure a safe travel for certain types of sedation dentistry.

Dental works that may need sedation
·         Root canals
·         Dental veneers
·         Dental implants
·         Crowns
·         Bridges
·         Tooth extraction
·         Filling
·         Prophylaxis to those patients who are extra sensitive

With this type of gentle dentistry, your fear of the dentist will be gone! There is no need to suffer from cavities, missing teeth, pain, sensitivity, and many more; because your Charlotte sedation dentists are here to help you get your ideal smile.
