Have You Been Avoiding the Dentist?
You are not alone.
Would you rather endure the agony of a toothache than step foot into a dentist’s office? Does the idea of a teeth cleaning make you squirm with fear?
You’ve come to the right place.
We help nervous patients every day. Dr. Golian has worked with patients to overcome their fear of the dentist. You can finally relax at the dental office and get the dental work that you need done, sometimes in just one appointment!
Together we’ll form a plan to correct any problems you have — and you will be comfortable throughout the work — oftentimes with little memory of it at all.
Sedation can help you if:
- You have trouble sitting still in the dentist's chair during a procedure
- You have a bad and debilitating gag reflex
- You have years worth of dental work that needs to be completed that is weighing you down
- You had a painful or bad dental experience in the past
- You simply want to get the treatment done quickly
What Types of Dental Sedation Are Offered at Buckeye Lake Dental?
The type of sedation best for you will depend on several factors, such as your anxiety level, your specific procedure or surgery, your medical history and medications and your personal preference. We offer Oral Conscious Sedation and Nitrous Oxide Anxiolysis (laughing gas).
What is Oral Conscious Sedation?
Oral Conscious Sedation is a more common type of dental sedation where you receive sedative medication in a pill form prior to your procedure. This type of dental sedation often makes patients feel very relaxed and sometimes they may fall asleep. It is best for people who have lengthy procedures and/or who have some dental anxiety.
What is Nitrous Oxide Anxiolysis (laughing gas)?
Commonly known as laughing gas, nitrous oxide is administered through a face mask or nosepiece during your procedure. The gas has a calming effect that wears off quickly once the nosepiece is removed. This dental sedation is best for people with a little anxiety who may need help getting through a shorter procedure or a dental cleaning.
