Minimal Sedation (Anxiolysis)
Fear of the dentist stops people from scheduling important dental work and achieving optimal oral health. Minimal sedation dentistry (anxiolysis) allows us to create a peaceful, relaxing environment so that our patients can receive the dental care they need. Dr. Siegel often recommends minimal sedation (anxiolysis) for anyone with a strong gag reflex, patients who experience dental phobia, and people who need extensive treatment that requires a long time in the dental chair.
Minimal Sedation (anxiolysis) allows patients to enter a state of relaxation by taking an anti-anxiety medication prior to treatment. An hour before your appointment, you will take a dose of the medication. During the procedure, you will respond to our commands but you'll have little memory of the treatment the following day. Because the effects from minimal sedation (anxiolysis) may linger, a friend or relative must accompany you to and from the appointment. Thanks to minimal sedation (anxiolysis), nervous patients can attain healthy, radiant smiles.
We also use amenities like pillows, blankets, TVs, headphones, and music to make your experience more pleasant. The technologies we have chosen ensure patient comfort and provide us with the most accurate information about your oral health.
