Sedation Dentistry Can Reduce Anxiety in the Dentist’s Chair

Sedation dentistry

There are many people who fear dental procedures. They have concerns about the discomfort they are going to experience. Sedation dentistry in Brandon allows patients to feel relaxed while receiving dental work, but you may wonder if it is right for you.

The Way Sedation Dentistry Works

The process varies depending on the sedation the dentist uses. For instance, if the dentist gives you an oral sedative, you will get a prescription and instructions for how you should take the medicine. You need to follow the instructions so that you can enjoy the increased relaxation and reduced anxiety that comes from taking the medication. You will feel drowsy and content once the medicine starts to work.

There’s no preparation involved with other types of sedation. The dentist will provide it before the procedure, during and immediately afterwards. The right type of sedation for you will ultimately depend on your wants and needs and the dentist’s preferences.

Does Everyone Need Sedation Dentistry?

There are several reasons a patient would consider dental sedation. Each individual has different reasons for their interest, and some of these may include:

– General anxiety disorder
– Local anesthetic resistance
– Phobia of dental procedures
– Sensitive oral nerves
– Bad experience in the past with dental work
– Mouth is small and dental work causes it to become sore

If you can relate or recognize yourself in one or more of the reasons listed, you may want to consider talking to our dentist about sedation dentistry in Brandon. There are quite a few types of dental work that dental sedation can help patients get through, such as dental implantation, tooth extractions, root canals, and others. For routine care, like X-rays or cleanings, dentists rarely use it. However, if the patient experiences extreme anxiety with routine procedures like those mentioned, then it could be a viable reason for sedation.

What is the Benefit of Dental Sedation?

If you are avoiding having dental work done because you fear discomfort or some other part of the procedure, sedation dentistry in Brandon might provide the best solution. You put yourself at risk of developing serious oral problems when you ignore cavities, broken or loose teeth, and other issues. As time passes and you continue to put off the work, the problem could become more complicated, which could mean more invasive work in the future.

If upcoming dental work concerns you or has you feeling anxious, talk to the team at the office of Larry Saylor, DMD in Brandon during an initial consultation. Contact us today to book your appointment.
