RELAX...You're in great hands!
Nearly 40% of the population feels nervous or
uncomfortable about going to the dentist or having dental procedures done, so
much so that they put up with the pain and embarrassment of severely
broken down teeth. Dr. Mastrobattista understands the
importance of helping patients feel relaxed and comfortable during dental
procedures. With IV sedation dentistry administered by a board certified
anesthesiologist, patients can sleep through long overdue dental work in a safe
comfortable manner. For those patients with mild anxiety, an oral
sedative, nitrous oxide and pain free technique may be all that is needed to
complete their dental work. The sedation fee is based on an hourly rate
which is due at the time of service. Extended payment plans can be
arranged with Capital One. If you feel that sedation is
necessary for your dental care, give us a call to learn more about our sedation
dentistry.
How You May Feel After Sedation
Most patients remember nothing about their treatment. A few will remember a
little, usually at the end of the appointment when we are getting them ready to
go home. You will need someone to bring you to our office on the day of your
sedation appointment and you MUST have someone take you home afterwards.
Safety of Sedation
During IV sedation, we use monitoring equipment to monitor your pulse and blood
pressure. You’ll be done before you know it, completely unaware of the time
passing, totally relaxed.
