Sedation Dentistry Overview
Why get sedation dentistry?
If you are a high anxiety high fear dental patient who is afraid of the drill and the bill then have no worry. We have sedation dentistry therapy for you. Not many dentists are sedation dentistry certified. That is because it requires further training after dental school. Our dentists are sedation dentistry certified to make sure that you have the most comfortable and relaxed dental therapy possible. Our dentist are certified in every form of sedation dentistry possible. That is because we want to be able to go the distance for those patients who have had poor dental experiences in the past with a prior dentist and are afraid to get further therapy. Our sedation dentistry can completely have you relaxed and comfortable to the point that you would forget you even had a procedure.
Normally sedation is used in every sort of medical procedure known to man. Dentistry is now getting into the art of using sedatives in order to do their dental surgeries. Otherwise most other avenues that people use for surgery use sedation therapy. Dentistry is the only procedure that is done while the patient is completely alert and awake.
We recognize here at Triangle Dental Center that these practices are completely in the past. That is why we have most current methods to make sure our patients have a great dental experience.

Oral sedation dentistry is used for those patient who have trouble with needles and would not like to go intravenous sedation therapy. For those patients we can offer oral sedation dentistry therapies so that they can have a relaxed dental experience without experiencing the pinprick sensation of an intravenous needle stick.
Another reason a person might need oral sedation therapy is to help them quell anxiety before a procedure. If a sedative is given the night before then the patient can completely relax the night before and the day of a dental procedure. Once the patient comes into the office he can be given sedation in order to make sure that the agent is onboard by the time the patient gets to the operation room.
Agents used in sedation dentistry can include opiate, and benzodiazepines. These agents can relax you to the point of reduced consciousness allowing the dentist to operate with no issues. We can have your work done as quickly and efficiently as possible so that you will never know a difference.

Oral Sedation Dentistry
If you need sedation dentistry the best thing to do is to undergo intravenous sedation. It is the safest way to give you sedative agents in the most powerful and predictable fashion. Oral agents have the draw back of variable absorption into the blood stream across the stomach lining. Intravenous agents go directly into the blood and can be monitored much more predictable and stronger levels can be given to completely control your sedative experience. Intravenous therapy is the gold standard for using sedation dentistry therapy. There are also combinations of oral and intravenous sedation therapies that an office can use for a synergistic and relaxing dental experience.
