Why Wanting Dental Sedation Isn’t Unusual

Perhaps you somehow got the idea that wanting or requiring dental sedation is unusual in some way. The truth is, it’s extremely common. You will find that at oral surgeons and at your general dentist’s office alike, the use of a sedative is becoming more and more frequent. Why? Well, because we want you to feel comfortable. Why are patients often so uncomfortable or unsure regarding smile care? Let’s examine this topic!

Sometimes Patients Are Uneasy About The Unknown

You’ve heard it before! A fear of the unknown is extremely common. Particularly if you’ve never required oral surgery before but now you do, you may feel a little (or a lot) uneasy. Don’t let this deter you from caring for your smile. Instead, we strongly encourage you to be open with us about your emotions. We will talk with you about the ways dental sedation may help!

Sometimes, It’s All About The Past

Even if you had an experience that was upsetting several decades ago, your nervous system may not be thrilled about this memory. You may be excited and feeling fairly confident about choosing to come in to resolve problems with issues like tooth loss, your jaw, etc. When your nervous system isn’t cooperating, dental sedation may be of assistance. Remember: This is a very common issue!

Sometimes, It’s All About The Procedure

When you’re having implants placed, you’re going to need dental sedation because it’s a surgical procedure! In case you were wondering if patients always receive a sedative for common surgical procedures, the answer is yes. It’s a reason we offer a variety of options for your smile. Not sure how to begin? Let us know what’s on your mind and we’re ready to help.
