Sometimes referred to as “comfortable” or “relaxation” dentistry, the terms describe the feelings most patients experience during their oral sedation appointments. The purpose of oral sedation is to allow a dentist to work more effectively by helping a patient become as comfortable as possible with the use of sedative medications administered orally and sublingually.

Dr Hannah has been specially trained using safe medications that help our patients be completely comfortable while their dentistry is being done.  One of the benefits of sedation are that patients remember little to nothing of their time in the dental chair by the next day.  With sedation, a patients apprehension and hypersensitivity to pain is virtually eliminated thus reducing the likelihood and severity of post-operative discomfort.
