At Dawson Dental Centre, we understand that visiting the dentist can be a nerve-wracking experience for some. That's why we're proud to offer sedation dentistry, ensuring a comfortable and anxiety-free visit for all our patients. The benefits of sedation dentistry are manifold. It helps to reduce patient anxiety, manage pain, and can even allow for multiple procedures to be completed in fewer visits. This is particularly beneficial for those who may have been postponing essential dental care due to fear or discomfort.
Oral Sedation and Nitrous Oxide: At our clinic, we primarily utilize oral sedation and nitrous oxide for our sedation dentistry services. Oral sedation involves taking a prescribed medication before your appointment, making you feel more relaxed by the time you're in the dental chair. Nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, is inhaled to induce a state of relaxation. Both methods are safe and effective, allowing you to remain awake but significantly more at ease throughout your procedure.
Locating a reliable sedation dentist in Burnaby is crucial for a reassuring dental experience. At Dawson Dental Centre, our skilled team, led by Dr. Niloofar Bahar and Dr. Siavash Arvan, is experienced in providing sedation dentistry. Our practice is conveniently located for residents of Burnaby and the surrounding areas, making access to stress-free dental care easier than ever.
Sedation dentistry is versatile, accommodating a wide range of dental procedures. From routine cleanings to more complex treatments like dental implants, root canals, or wisdom teeth removal, sedation can be applied to virtually any procedure to enhance patient comfort. This adaptability ensures that patients can undergo necessary dental care without the hindrance of anxiety or discomfort.
While sedation dentistry is widely considered safe, it's important for patients to discuss their medical history with their dentist beforehand. Our team at Dawson Dental Centre thoroughly reviews each patient's health profile to tailor the sedation method to their specific needs, minimizing risks and ensuring the utmost care.
The cost of sedation dentistry can vary depending on the type of sedation used and the length of the procedure. At Dawson Dental Centre, we believe in transparent communication about costs and offer flexible financing options to make sedation dentistry accessible to as many patients as possible. We also offer direct insurance billing to streamline the payment process.
Preparing for a sedation dentistry appointment is straightforward. We advise patients to avoid eating or drinking six hours before their procedure if receiving oral sedation. Additionally, it's essential to arrange for someone to drive you home post-appointment, as the sedatives' effects can take some time to wear off completely.
Post-care following a sedation dentistry procedure is crucial for recovery. Our team provides detailed instructions tailored to your specific treatment and sedation type. Generally, it's recommended to rest for the remainder of the day and avoid operating heavy machinery. Staying hydrated and following any prescribed medication regimens are also important steps towards a swift recovery.
