Services - What is Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation dentistry allows you to be sedated just enough to
be pain free and unaware of the treatment, as if you were
relaxing. That is why it is normally referred to as
conscious sedation dentistry. So if you have sensitive
teeth, a fear of dentists, have a bad gag reflex, hate
needles, or have limited time to spend on dental care at the
dentist, Sedation during dentistry procedures can help you.
Whatever the case may be sedation by your dentists can help
you be more anxiety free during your dentistry treatment.
Your dentist's ultimate goal is to make your visit to the
dentist a relaxing and enjoyable one. Since you are
completely comfortable, relaxed, and pain free your sedation
dentist can do years of dental treatments in one or two
dental visits.
With sedation your dentist can restore sore gums to good
dental health, fix a chipped tooth, replace crowns or
dentures, whiten yellow or stained teeth, and more.
All pain free!
THE WAND
The Wand Plus® Computer Controlled Anesthetic Delivery
System
You may have heard about a device known as "The Wand". The
wand is essentially a computer controlled injection. This
means that the injection is guaranteed to be slow and
therefore more comfortable. Obviously it is possible for the
dentist to control the speed himself with a standard
injection, but the idea of the wand is to take out the
"human error" in the speed of the injection and therefore
ensure a reproducable and painless injection every time.
The
Wand is a useful gadget because it doesn't look like a
traditional syringe, it works really well! Needle phobics
love it... it's a bit slow though, but apart from that, no
major disadvantages! If your dentist offers it, cool, if
not, many dentists are well able to give painless injections
without it - it's not that widely available.
Here at the Sacramento Dental Group we utilize this
technology for the benefit our Patients.
We want to
make sure that your Dental Experience is the most
comfortable and pain free one yet.
