Posts Tagged ‘Oral Conscious Sedation’

At www.TheGentleDentist.com  we provide all phases of dentistry including cosmetic dentistry, dental implants and general dentistry for the entire family.  What is necessary with all our treatments is to get the potential patient into the chair.  This may seem obvious, but I can tell you of many who have avoided the dentist because of their intense fear of the dentist.  This fear is typically generated as a young child who had no say so on their care.  The dentist usually hurt them and they just had to endure the pain no matter how intense it was.  Being a child or even as an adult these patients were at the mercy of someone they feared.   After this horrible experience they make an agreement with themselves that they will NEVER, NEVER put themselves in this postion again.   After many years of internally battling with themselves to go to the dentist a situation will present such as a bad toothache or a broken front tooth  and they have no choice but to see the dentist.  And that is when we or other modern caring dentists come into play:

At our office we truly understand these fears and work at a pace appropriate to our patient to create a positive experience.Oral conscious sedation is a great way to have hours of dentistry done in one visit.   With the use of a small sleeping pill taken 1 hour before your dental appointment you will have virtually no memory of the procedure.  If you are:

• Nervous from similar a bad experiences as described above and said “I will never go back to the dentist again”
• Have a difficult time with gagging
• Need a lot of dental procedures done but don’t have the time to return over and over again to get it done.
• Need multiple procedures such as crown, extractions, root canals and implant placement done and you don’t want to go to multiple dental offices. 
• The truth is that you don’t have to wait any more.

At the Gentle Dentist we see many high fear patients in our office.  Many of these people have had terrible experiences as children.  The dentist of their youth either didn’t listen to them, put their hands over their mouth as they tried to scream for help or did dental fillings and therefore had fear of the dental drill without the use of any anesthetic.  I hear this so much when I interview those who have rightfully so avoided the dentist for many years.  It is now possible to have all of your dentistry done in as little as a one or two visits and not have any memory of the visit.  Can you imagine that?  Not remembering the visit.  What a great way to get over the fear that has been controlling you.
