Dental Fear

Millions of Americans avoid the dentist because of fear or negative past experiences. !

The trouble is, when you avoid the dentist, you end up needing more advanced treatment in the future when a tooth falls out or severe gum disease sets in. !

Our team at Serenity Dental understands dental fear, and we welcome those who haven’t see a dentist in a while, as well as those who struggle to relax in the dental chair. !

The good news is, dental fear can be overcome, and sedation dentistry is making this possible.

Oral Sedation

Sedation dentistry has been proven safe and effective for patients with mild to moderate dental fear. !

It involves a medication taken orally prior to your visit. The medication encourages relaxation and makes most patients feel drowsy. !

Oral sedation also has an amnesic effect, so you won’t recall specific details of your treatment. !

Whether you need a deep cleaning or replacement teeth, sedation dentistry can give you the peace of mind you need to face the dentist and receive ongoing care.
