Imagine your child undergoing a complex dental treatment like a root canal, extraction, or oral surgery. When treatment is complete, your child will have no recollection of the time it took, the pain, the noise, or the discomfort. We are pleased to offer your child the option of comfortable, safe, and effective sedation dentistry. Our pediatric dental patients can benefit from sedation dentistry for a variety of reasons such as:
- A fear or anxiety of being at the dentist
- A previous traumatic dental experience
- A hard time sitting still for long periods of time
- Inability to cooperate for dental procedures
- Special needs patients
What is sedation dentistry?
Sedation dentistry allows your pediatric dentist to provide a variety of dental treatments safely and comfortably for children who experience anxiety when visiting the dentist. There are several benefits to sedation dentistry, including:
- No memory of undergoing the procedure
- No sense of time while under sedation
- No sense of smell or sound
- No fear or anxiety during treatment
We are pleased to work with an anesthesiologist, Dr. Elisabeth Goldstein, to provide in-office IV sedation for patients. Dr. Goldstein is a medical doctor and has specialized training in the management of pediatric and special needs patients and focuses on providing a pain free and comfortable dental experience for your child. For more information on Dr. Goldstein and her services, please visit her website at https://www.csamdllc.com/
