What is Sedation Dentistry

Sedation dentistry uses medication to help patients feel relaxed and comfortable during dental procedures. Sedatives block painful sensations and anxiety that often accompany dental visits. Patients remain awake but in a relaxed, drowsy state so they can still respond to stimuli. Sedation allows complex oral health treatments to be performed safely and efficiently in fewer visits. This is because patients feel peaceful instead of tense or fearful during appointments. There are different sedation methods depending on the medications, dose and level of relaxation required.

4 Benefits of Sedation Dentistry

  1. Anxiety and Fear Management: One of the most prominent benefits of sedation dentistry is its ability to alleviate patient anxiety and fear. Many individuals are apprehensive about dental procedures, which leads to avoidance of essential treatments. Sedation helps patients relax and feel at ease during their appointments, ultimately ensuring they receive the care they need.
  2. Increased Patient Comfort: Sedation dentistry enhances patient comfort significantly. By inducing a state of deep relaxation or unconsciousness, patients are spared from the discomfort, pain and unpleasant sensations that often accompany dental procedures. This improved comfort makes complex treatments more tolerable and less intimidating.
  3. Time and Efficiency: Sedation dentistry often leads to more efficient and time-saving dental appointments. Patients under sedation are generally more cooperative, enabling dentists to perform procedures with fewer interruptions or challenges. This results in quicker treatment times and a more streamlined workflow for dental practitioners.
  4. Complex Procedures Made Accessible: For patients requiring extensive or intricate dental work, sedation dentistry opens doors to a wider range of treatment options. Complex surgeries, such as dental implants, wisdom tooth extractions, or root canals, are made more accessible as sedation enables dentists to work with precision and minimizes patient discomfort during the process.

Most Popular Types of Sedation Dentistry

The most common forms of sedation dentistry are oral sedation, nitrous oxide and intravenous (IV) sedation. Oral sedatives like Valium are taken by mouth and provide mild relaxation. Nitrous oxide gas also induces mild sedation and reduces anxiety. IV sedation involves administering sedative medication through a vein, which produces a deeper state of relaxation and amnesic effects. IV sedation requires specialized monitoring but allows more extensive treatments with less awareness and discomfort.

I always enjoy my teeth cleaning with Emily. You can tell from her attitude that she really cares about her patients. She really is the best. Everyone is helpful at Windsor Family Dental. I highly recommend them.

Nick Z.

Dana, my hygienist, did a fantastic job. With over 25 years of experience, she skillfully engaged in conversation with me while working on my teeth, making the cleaning process pleasant and comfortable. I also had the pleasure of meeting Kristi, Dr. DeMatthew's assistant, who was friendly and personable. Dr. DeMatthew herself was articulate in explaining the details of my dental health, making sure I understood everything clearly. Overall, my experience at Windsor Family Dental was wonderful, and I highly recommend Dr. DeMatthew and her staff.

I had to switch dental clinics because of insurance reasons and I am happy to have landed at Windsor Family Dental. The staff here is great and I love Dr. Zhao, she addressed a concern that I’ve had for years and put my mind at ease. Everyone made me feel comfortable and after my visit my lifelong dread of dental appointments has vanished.
