If dental anxiety has ever held you back from getting the oral treatment you need, you need to call and talk to us about the benefits of sedation dentistry. At Dr. Lampee’s Teeth In 24 dental practice, we offer customized intravenous (IV) dental sedation and dental anesthesia options for patients undergoing complex surgical procedures, as well as those who suffer from serious dental anxiety at the thought of going to the dentist.
‘Conscious IV sedation’ refers to the act of administering anesthesia via an IV in order to lower anxiety and instill relaxation during a dental treatment. Thanks to sedation dentistry, most patients feel as if they are in a dream-like state; while some patients remain awake throughout the course of the procedure, many others fall asleep in the chair as a result of the deep relaxation.
This type of dental sedation is crucial for patients that require complex surgical procedures, such as dental implant surgery or soft tissue disease treatment. Dr. Lampee understands that many patients suffer from intense fear, stress, and anxiety at the thought of a dental procedure, and that these feelings can quickly become overwhelming.
This is why we offer dental IV sedation, as it provides a quick and convenient solution for many patients that suffer from dental anxiety.
Reserved for the most invasive surgical procedures such as full mouth dental implant surgery, general dental anesthesia is a type of dental anesthesia that combines various sedation medications to make sure a patient is completely unconscious during their treatment. Partnering with a board certified anesthesiologist, Dr. Lampee’s Teeth In 24 Dental Practice can provide this advanced level of dental anesthesia.
Nitrous oxide sedation, commonly known as “laughing gas,” is a milder form of sedation dentistry that is inhaled through a mask just minutes prior to undergoing a dental treatment. The results of NO2 ensure that you will remain alert, yet thoroughly relaxed over the course of your treatment. Also, the effects of laughing gas wear off almost immediately after the mask is removed, allowing you to drive home after your treatment in most instances.
No matter the treatment or surgical procedure you need, make sure you never put off or postpone dental treatment because of dental anxiety. If you’re looking for sedation anesthesia near you, Dr. Lampee’s Teeth In 24 Dental Practice offers a variety of sedation dentistry options, all of which are guaranteed to make your dental visit more comfortable, and less stress-inducing.
