Is IV sedation for dental work right for you or your loved one? The thought of a dental procedure can make just about any cringe. Whether it is the pain, discomfort of sitting in the chair, the sound of the drill, or having someone’s hands in your mouth, sedation can help you feel more relaxed and at ease.
Who can benefit from sedation dentistry?
Those with disabilities or special needs
Adults who have had bad experiences at the dentist
Phobia or general anxiety disorder
Unable so sit for long periods of time
Very sensitive oral nerves
Before you struggle with having a dental treatment or put your child through a traumatizing procedure, consult with a Registered Certified Nurse Anesthetist. IV sedation has helped patients of all ages easily get all types of dental work, from complex treatments, to root canals and X-rays and dental cleanings.
If you have been avoiding or putting off necessary dental work IV sedation can make all your dental fears melt away.
Children are particularly vulnerable to dental situations. A bad or painful situation at the dentist can put them at risk for a lifetime of poor oral health.
Avoiding or ignoring dental issues puts a person at risk of broken teeth, cavities, gum disease, and a host of other issues.
Why Oral Health Matters from the American Dental Association
Numerous recent scientific studies indicate associations between oral health and a variety of general health conditions — including diabetes and heart disease. In response, the World Health Organization has integrated oral health into its chronic disease prevention efforts “as the risks to health are linked.”
Dental anxiety affects both children and adults. For those living in New Hampshire, including the cities of Barrington, Dover, Concord, Amherst, Nashua, Bedford, or Rochester, there is help.
