Sedation Dentist in Lusby
Receiving a regular oral health examination is crucial to your overall health. Not only do your teeth require a thorough cleaning, but your oral health can impact your overall health. Make this the year you visit our office. Do you need a partner to help you with your dental anxiety? There are options for you. Here’s what you need to know about sedation dentistry.
You Have Options
Don’t let dental anxiety prevent you from receiving the care you need. Oral conscious sedation is an option for you. Our team is trained in working with patients to provide a comfortable, safe experience for you. Oral conscious sedation is a moderate level of sedation that provides a deep relaxation. You are still able to walk, talk, or answer any questions, but you will be treated in a drowsy state. In fact, many patients tell us they don’t have a memory of the procedure. This can be a welcome change if you are anxious about a dental examination or require additional care and assistance. To receive sedation therapy, you must have assistance in transportation as you will not be allowed to drive for up to 24 hours. This ensures the sedative effects are fully diminished.
Your Oral Health Is Important
A regular dental examination provides your teeth with a complete cleaning. Plaque and tartar build-up over time and can lead to decay or infection. These can be mitigated with a visit to our office. Beyond a cleaning, a thorough oral health examination can provide an examination of your gums. Periodontal disease, or gum disease, has been linked to increasing your risk of heart attack or stroke. Allow us to be your partner in helping your overall health. Our team is trained on what to look for and will communicate their findings with you in a clear manner.
Your comfort is important to us. We love building relationships with our patients by providing a safe, comfortable environment. Don’t put off dental care for another year. You always have options. Allow our team to be a part of your support group. We are ready to work with you.
If you have any questions about sedation dentistry or would like to schedule your next appointment, please contact our office. We look forward to seeing you soon!
