Sedation Dentistry FAQs
How Does Sedation Dentistry Work?
We may use general anesthesia or minimal sedation to help you stay relaxed during your treatment. At our dental office in Tampa, we offer various options.
Am I a Good Candidate?
You are a good candidate for this form of dentistry if you have dental anxiety, require comprehensive dentistry, have trouble getting numb, have high blood pressure or have a strong involuntary gag reflex. During your initial appointment, we will look at your medical history and ask you certain questions to know whether you are a good candidate.
How Will I Feel After the Procedure is Over?
One of the significant benefits of sedation dentistry in Tampa is that you will often feel that your dental procedure lasted only a few minutes. You will usually feel better after your treatment, but it’s generally a good idea to have a family member or friend drive you home.
