Are you suffering from a toothache and wish you could just go to the dentist and get it taken care of and not even remember what happens at the dentist?
If so, you are not alone. The Sugar House Dentist in Salt Lake City may have a solution that can calm your fears!
Sedation dentist Dr. Theurer has several sedation dentistry options that might make coming to the dentist something you not only don’t fear…but look forward to!
Oral Sedation Dentistry
Oral sedation dentistry is very simple. Our sedation dentist gives you a pill that you will take before you get your dental work. This pill helps you relax. Its purpose is not to make you fall asleep, but merely to help you feel relaxed and comfortable during your treatment. You may feel groggy and you might even forget you had dental treatment. But you are awake and aware, just calmer. When using oral sedation dentistry, because you are a little groggy, you will need a ride to and from your appointment.
Laughing Gas Sedation Dentistry
Our sedation dentist in Sugar House is happy to provide you with this tried and true sedation dentistry method. Although it’s called laughing gas, you need not worry about giggling uncontrollably. Laughing gas is a gas that is administered to you with a mask placed over your nose.
This time-tested method has many bonuses. First, it is quickly assimilated when it is administered. Secondly, it quickly leaves your system after you are through with your procedure. This means that you can drive yourself to and from your appointment.
If dental anxiety is something that is keeping you from seeing a dentist, please call our sedation dentist today! Sedation dentistry can make your dental anxiety disappear. Our sedation dentist and his friendly, well-trained team can make seeing the dentist something you look forward to if you are in the Salt Lake City area, from Sugar House to Millcreek UT!
