What is Sedation Dentistry?

Most people do not look forward to extensive dental work, but for some a simple routine teeth cleaning appointment can create severe dental anxiety. That’s why Dr. Rob D’Orazio offers several methods of sedation dentistry in Sterling Heights, MI. Sedation dentistry allows you to relax and get the care you need. Whether your dental anxiety levels are mild or severe, we have a solution to meet your needs:

Intravenous (IV) conscious sedation

This is effective in the most severe cases of anxiety. Sedatives are continuously administered via IV for ultimate comfort. You will seem to have slept through the procedure with no lasting memory of your visit.

Nitrous oxide

A colorless gas, nitrous is breathed in through a nose mask and produces an almost immediate feeling of euphoria which dissipates when the mask is removed.

Local anesthetic

Typically lidocaine, a local anesthetic, is injected via needle into the soft tissue surrounding the treatment site to numb a specific area.

What Causes Dental Anxiety?

Feeling anxious about dental work is nothing to be ashamed of. Dr. D’Orazio has worked with hundreds of patients who were able to conquer their fears and get the beautiful, healthy smile they deserve with the help of sedation dentistry. Factors that can contribute to dental anxiety include:

  • Fear of needles or dental drills
  • Severe gag reflex
  • Tooth sensitivity
  • Low pain threshold
  • Complex dental procedures
  • Negative past experiences with a dentist

Is Sedation Dentistry for You?

If dental anxiety is keeping you from getting the dental treatment that you need, sedation dentistry may be the answer. When patients visit us for oral surgery or complex cases, such as smile makeovers, Dr. D’Orazio often recommends sedation dentistry in Sterling Heights, MI. From dentures to dental implants, we can incorporate sedation methods to ensure that we protect your smile while maintaining your comfort.
