When a visit to the dentist fills you with anxiety, rest assured Sage Dental has your back.
Our specialized sedation dentistry practices mean you won't ever have to worry about dentist visits again.
At Sage Dental, we understand that dental phobia can be overwhelming. With sedation dentistry, fear and stress are a thing of the past.
Imagine comfortably enduring treatments such as cavity filling or denture fitting, without any trepidation. Our highly-trained Langley sedation dentists ensure just that.
Sedation dentistry involves using medication to help patients relax during dental procedures. It's often referred to as "sleep dentistry," although that's not entirely accurate. Patients are usually awake except for those under general anesthesia. Our Langley sedation & general dentistry services provide various options like oral conscious sedation, nitrous oxide, and even dental freezing, if needed.
Many people dread visiting the dentist due to dental fear. This fear can lead to delaying necessary dental procedures, causing serious harm to oral health.
Sedation dentistry provides a fear-free, comfortable environment for patients. It's a solution for those who are scared of the dentist but need treatment. It is also beneficial for lengthy procedures as it allows dentists to work more efficiently without causing discomfort to the patient.
Sedation dentistry offers many benefits:
During a sedation dentistry visit, you'll be made comfortable and stress-free. Depending on your treatment and level of anxiety, we might use oral conscious sedation, nitrous oxide, or freezing. Our team of Langley sedation dentists will monitor you throughout the procedure to ensure your well-being.
The cost of sedation dentistry varies based on the type of sedation required and the duration of the procedure. We recommend consulting with our Langley sedation dental team to discuss the best options for you and understand potential costs.
Insurance coverage for sedation dentistry varies greatly. Some insurance providers partially cover sedation particularly if it's medically necessary, while some do not cover sedation when it is elected for by the patient. We recommend discussing this with your insurance provider. Or call our Langley sedation & general dentistry center and we will help you out.
Before any sedation, your dentist will review your medical history, current medications, and discuss the best sedation method for your needs. Some sedation methods require you to fast the night before. Additionally, you'll need someone to drive you home after certain types of sedation, so it's good to plan ahead.
Depending on the type of sedation used, you may feel relaxed or fall asleep during the procedure. An anesthesiologist dentist will monitor your vital signs, including blood pressure and heart rate, to ensure your safety during the procedure. You may not remember much about the procedure due to the effects of the sedation.
After the procedure, you'll spend some time in the recovery area as the sedation wears off. You may feel groggy or slightly confused initially.
It's recommended to have someone drive you home after the procedure.
While sedation dentistry is generally safe, some potential side effects and risks include:
These side effects are usually mild and short-lived. Serious complications are rare. Rest assured, our professional team at Sage Dental will take all necessary precautions to minimize any risks and ensure your comfort and safety during every visit.
