Are you the type of person who avoids having dental work done because you have a strong aversion to dental treatment? If so, you are not alone. Many people are put off going to the dentist and this is usually due to underlying fears. Perhaps a bad dental experience as a child or a high gag reflex. It is now time to relax- Dental sedation is here.
With sedation dentistry, your treatment will be performed more comfortably than you ever thought possible. Intravenous conscious sedation is a very safe technique that uses the drug Midazolam. Used in an amount carefully adjusted to your needs, you will be conscious but very drowsy and unaware of time passing by. And, because you will be completely comfortable it is possible to carry out many different treatments in one or two visits.
