Dental Sedation

[00:00:09.325] We offer conscious sedation here at this practice. [00:00:12.292] A lot of patients come in here with a lot of anxieties due to past dental problems. [00:00:17.983] A lot of people come in here with gagging problems. [00:00:20.280] They cannot tolerate anything done in their mouth. [00:00:22.783] Or they have a physical condition in which they can't sit still. [00:00:26.275] And so we have to take them to a comfortable and safe level [00:00:29.376] to get their work done. [00:00:30.625] If you ask any of my patients that have had sedation dentistry, [00:00:33.225] they have come here, they have remembered waking up [00:00:36.675] taking their pills. [00:00:37.775] They might remember showing up here, and the next thing you know, [00:00:40.259] they woke up at home going, how did I get here? [00:00:42.483] That's the kind of reaction you want to have, [00:00:44.976] is they were asleep throughout the procedure [00:00:47.133] and didn't remember anything of the procedure. [00:00:50.033] That's the best benefit, [00:00:51.410] especially if they've had some trauma in the past [00:00:53.925] and we can provide that for them [00:00:55.916] so they can relax and they can have their dentistry done [00:00:58.675] and feel confident that they can have this taken care of.
