What is Sedation Dentistry?

Sedation dentistry is when medications are used during a dental procedure to relax the patient to make them more comfortable. People choose to be sedated for dental procedures for several reasons. Sedation is often necessary for some dental work. However, it is offered to all patients who qualify. At Oak Park Dental Associates, we offer the following sedation procedures:

Local anesthesia
Laughing gas

Who is a Candidate for Sedation Dentistry?

There are many factors why someone would be a candidate for sedation dentistry. Anxiety is the most common reason why people avoid dental care. However, there is a large number of patients who experience other negative issues that impact how or why they would see a dentist. Some of these issues include:

Bad gag reflex.

Tight jaw muscles which won’t allow the patient's mouth to open enough to perform a procedure.

Local anesthetics are not strong enough to treat a certain issue.

Whatever the reason may be, sedation dentistry could be a great option for you. If you want to learn more about sedation dentistry at Oak Park Dental Associates, call us at (708) 848-8237 today.
