Calming Dental Sedation
for Kennesaw and Acworth, GA
Afraid of the Dentist? We Can Help!
Do you or someone you love have a fear of the dentist? For some people, even just thinking of visiting the dentist can make them cringe. Dental anxiety and dental phobia can cause many people to neglect their oral health.
Dr. Anderson and his team understand that fear can be a major barrier to good oral health. That’s why we offer all of our patients a more comfortable and calm dental experience, using sedation dentistry.
Come visit us for a consultation. A consultation merely entails us discussing how we can give you a positive dental experience. Dr. Anderson and his team will ask you a few simple questions regarding your smile goals and what needs to be done to reclaim your oral health.
Dr. Anderson will then help you design a custom treatment plan that will be as comfortable and relaxing as possible. Our dental sedation methods are safe and always administered by trained professionals.
What do our Patients say?
Laughing Gas
We offer laughing gas as a way to help our Kennesaw and Acworth patients feel more relaxed while at our office. Patients who experience mild levels of anxiety can use laughing gas to improve their dental visit. You will remain awake throughout your dental procedure, but completely free from worry. Under laughing gas, you will feel generally content and even lively.
When your procedure is finished, we will administer pure oxygen through the same mask we use to administer the laughing gas. Within minutes, the gas will be flushed from your system and you won’t have any side effects! Call us today if you are interested in laughing gas dental sedation in Kennesaw, GA.
Oral Conscious Sedation
For patients who need more than laughing gas, oral conscious sedation is the next step. This option is well-suited for moderate to severe dental anxiety, longer procedures, or patients who want to get more done in a single visit without feeling every minute of it.
Oral conscious sedation involves taking a prescribed medication before your appointment. By the time you’re in the chair, you’ll feel significantly relaxed, sometimes drowsy, but you’ll remain conscious and able to respond to Dr. Anderson throughout the procedure. Most patients have little to no memory of the appointment afterward.
Because the medication takes time to wear off, you’ll need a driver to bring you home. We’ll go over everything you need to know, including what to eat beforehand and what to expect during recovery, at your consultation.
Oral conscious sedation is available for most procedures at our Kennesaw office, including longer restorative appointments, extractions, and patients who have put off multiple treatments due to anxiety. If you’ve been avoiding the dentist for years, this is often the option that finally makes it possible to get caught up.
Amenities Available for Your Comfort
We understand that sometimes our patients need a little extra help getting relaxed, which is why we offer blankets and pillows to put you at ease. sWe also offer beverages for your comfort.
Sedation dentistry can also help patients with an overactive gag reflex or those who have difficulty becoming numb with local anesthesia alone. This is especially helpful during teeth cleanings and dental exams when tools are used in the mouth that might otherwise make a patient feel uncomfortable.
