Sedation Dentistry

If the thought of visiting the dentist leaves a pit in your stomach, you’re not alone. Millions of Americans experience dental anxiety. Often, this anxiety even prevents people from scheduling important dental appointments. Unfortunately, avoiding the dentist due to anxiety can increase your risk of serious health issues which may result in more painful and expensive treatments down the road.

Many people delay or avoid a visit to the dentist, usually because past experiences getting their teeth cleaned or having dental work done have been uncomfortable or even painful. However, having your teeth cleaned and checked regularly is vital for your oral health, as is getting any dental issues taken care of in a timely manner.
