At Advanced Family Dental Kendall, we understand that dental anxiety can make even routine visits to the dentist feel daunting. That’s why we’re proud to offer sedation dentistry as part of our comprehensive range of services. With sedation dentistry, our patients can experience a comfortable and stress-free dental experience, allowing them to get the care they need without fear or discomfort.
What is Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation dentistry involves the use of medication to help patients relax during dental procedures. Depending on the level of sedation required, patients may remain awake but feel deeply relaxed, or they may drift off into a light sleep. At Advanced Family Dental Kendall, our experienced dentists, including Dr. Nelcy Triana, Dr. Elsa Yumar, and Dr. Isis C. Sosa, are trained in administering sedation safely and effectively.
The Benefits of Sedation Dentistry
-
Reduced Anxiety: Sedation helps calm nervous patients, allowing them to undergo treatment with ease.
-
Increased Comfort: Sedation can minimize discomfort during longer or more complex procedures.
-
Time Efficiency: By helping patients relax, sedation can make it easier for our dentists to perform procedures efficiently.
-
Improved Oral Health: With sedation dentistry, patients are more likely to seek and complete necessary dental treatments, leading to better oral health outcomes in the long run.
How Long Does Sedation Dentistry Last?
The duration of sedation varies depending on the type of medication used and the individual patient’s response. In general, the effects of sedation can last anywhere from a few hours to the remainder of the day. Our dentists will provide detailed instructions and guidelines for post-procedure care to ensure a safe and comfortable recovery.
