Recent studies show that over 40% of
adults have fears and anxieties when visiting dentists and with this in mind,
Portland Maine sedation dentists make it a point that every time a patient goes
through dental procedures, they should feel relaxed and comfortable. Sedation dentists have extensive experience in handling dental patients with fears and anxiety
towards dental procedures. They fully understand what a patient feels so they
will really take the time to make the patients feel comfortable and relaxed.
Pain-free dental works
Many people have put off dental work
simply because of their fears when visiting a dentist. As a result, they have
deprived themselves of proper dental care. In turn, they may feel toothaches
and other dental related disease that could have been otherwise avoided should
they have gone to the dentist.
To solve this problem, sedation
dentists administer sedation to dental patients who have fears towards dental
procedures. Upon recommendation of the dentist, patients can go for anxiolysis
or light sedation and oral sedation.
Anxiolysis or light sedation is taken
right before the visit with the dentist. On the other hand, oral sedation
involves taking a pill. Both of these procedures are safe and effective. When
necessary, sedation dentists in Portland Maine may
administer additional sedation.
Portland Maine sedation dentists understand that patients need to have their fears taken away
in order for them to get their needed dental work. Without sedation dentistry,
it may be impossible or it could take a very long time before these patients
get their dental work done. With sedation dentistry, it is now possible to get
pain-free and worry-free dental work.
