Am I A Candidate for Sedation Dentistry?

At our Rochester cosmetic and general dentistry office, our experienced dental team offers sedation dentistry for patients who need a little extra comfort and relaxation to cope with the anxiety that can often be associated with dental appointments.

You might be a candidate for our sedation dentistry services if:

• You are comfortable using mild sedatives like diazepam (valium) or triazolam (Halcion)
• You have overwhelming anxiety caused by dental treatments or medical settings
• You suffer from an acute fear of needles
• Your gag reflex is strong
• You have trouble with numbing treatments
• You have physical limitations in the neck, jaw or back that might affect the procedure
• You need to complete an extensive series of treatments in a single visit

If you are a viable candidate for sedation dentistry, it can be administered to you for a range of dental procedures and treatments including:

• Routine check-ups and dental cleanings
• Tooth repairs and replacements
• Cosmetic dentistry procedures
