Sedation Dentistry

Did you ever want to wave a magic wand and make your teeth problems
disappear? Today, modern medical technology makes it almost that easy.
Instead of only fixing a few small problems at a time, sedation dentistry
allows us to correct years of neglect in sometimes only one visit.

Sedation Dentistry is a procedure which has a goal of removing your
anxieties and fears for a few hours while your dentistry is being done. The
sedation procedure produces a strong sensation of deep relaxation and
euphoria, yet without losing the feeling of self-control. This relaxed and
responsive state allows you to respond to the doctor's directions and still
be aware of your surroundings.

One patient of mine told me, " I was afraid of the dentist, but was very
pleased to have all of my dentistry done in one appointment, without
remembering any of it. It was a very relaxing visit."

The American Dental Association estimates that about 20 per cent of the
population doesn't see the dentist because of fear and anxieties. Millions
of people have put off going to the dentist for years because of this fear.

Most people aren't born with this fear, but something happens to create the
fear such as having a tooth pulled at an early age, or possibly having a
filling done without enough anesthetic. Somewhere along the way, these
individuals simply choose to no longer go to the dentist.

Dr. Jones is one of a small percentage of dentists who is State Board
qualified to administer sedation dentistry and focuses on restoring teeth
with a cosmetic emphasis.

questions you may need answered.
