Our lovely team here at Gresham Premier Dentistry will be available to answer any questions regarding sedation options.
Basics
Oral Sedation Basics
Using medication to promote a feeling of calmness and to relieve stress, oral sedation is the solution to minimize extreme anxiety. In most cases, a pill is prescribed to the patient to take before the appointment.This medication will create a deep sense of relaxation without interfering with your ability to talk and follow instructions. In some cases, the patient might even fall asleep while on the dental chair and wake up with all their teeth fixed and cleaned!
Help
How can Oral Conscious Sedation Help You
Your twice a year visit to Premier Dentistry should go as smooth as possible to ensure a bright smile all year. Dr. Kevin Shim has added several conscious sedation methods to the services offered at Premier Gresham Dentistry to ensure your maximum comfort at the practice. There are several benefits to oral sedation:
Simple Process
During your first consultation, Dr. Kevin Shim will do a full evaluation of your overall health and gather all required information. After that, a full treatment plan will be described to you that will walk you through each step. A prescription for the oral dental sedative will be given to you to bring to the appointment. In some cases, laughing gas is used to provide maximum comfort during the procedure. You will be monitored during your visit to Premier Dentistry to ensure 100% success.
Now That Was Refreshing!
The medication will put you in a state of deep relaxation without affecting your consciousness. In some cases, the patient won’t even recall the procedure while under oral sedation and “wake up” feeling refreshed with all their teeth fixed!
Time-Saver!
Extensive dental treatment can take a few appointments to complete in order to allow the patient to rest especially if the patient is anxious. With oral conscious sedation, Dr. Kevin Shim and his amazing team are equipped to get everything done in just one visit!
