With sedation dentistry, dental patients in the 81147 area should no longer fear the dentist. If the sight of needles and the smells, sounds, and tastes associated with many dental procedures make you want to run for the nearest exit, sedation dentistry may be just what you need to get back into the dentist’s chair. Many patients in Pagosa Springs, CO experience heightened nerves when they visit the dentist, and we are happy to provide them dental sedation options for a more peaceful experience. We offer both IV sedation and nitrous oxide options for our patients, so they have little to no memory of their treatments. Sedation dentistry is very safe.
Dental fear is very common. According the Journal of the American Dental Association, an estimated 11 to 20 percent of the population has extreme dental anxiety, which prevents them from seeking the dental treatment they need, while an additional 45 percent suffer from a more moderate degree of dental-related fear. Whether it's caused by a bad experience at the dentist or just general anxiety at the thought of having dental work done, we understand how fear can make it a challenge to receive necessary dental care.

Imagine undergoing a complex dental treatment like a root canal, extraction, or oral surgery. When your treatment is complete, you have no recollection of the time it took, the pain, the noise, or the discomfort you were expecting. Sedation dentistry is popular because most sedatives can be taken by mouth, meaning no injections, no anxiety and no pain. Some sedatives work so effectively that even the smells and details of the procedure cannot be recalled afterwards. Safety and compliance are two important aspects of treatments, so sedation dentistry offers both the individual and the dentist the best alternative.
We are pleased to offer our patients in Pagosa Springs, CO the option of comfortable, safe, and effective sedation dentistry. Patients who benefit from sedation dentistry have:
A fear or anxiety of being at the dentist in 81147
A hard time sitting still for long periods of time
A hard time getting (and staying) numb from anesthetics
Sedation dentistry is often mistakenly thought to induce sleep. In fact, most sedatives allow the patient to stay awake during the procedure. Sleepiness is a side effect of some medications, but nitrous oxide, oral conscious sedation and IV sedation only work to calm anxiety throughout the dental visit.
Here are some advantages associated with sedation dentistry in Pagosa Springs, CO:
Anxiety is alleviated.
Few side effects.
More can be accomplished during each visit.
No needles.
No pain.
Perfectly safe.
