Sedation Dentistry
You were up all night worrying about how much pain you are in. You couldn’t even play golf yesterday. You recall the trauma you had when a dentist pulled a tooth years ago. He even botched a root canal. You were in pain for days after. Swollen. The whole nine yards. So you haven’t been to the dentist since then. Now you have some shattered teeth. Now you are in pain, so you don’t have a choice. Your mouth is a train wreck. And to boot, you had a heart attack 5 years ago, and you read about the correlation linking dental disease with cardiovascular disease. You heard this dentist was good, qualified, and he does Sedation Dentistry. You make the dreaded call. Your voice is quivering. The receptionist recognizes the fear in your voice. She calmly suggests you come in for a consultation. You sigh with relief. She understands. You smile now knowing that you will smile even more later. Your wife notices your satisfaction and decides to come to the consultation with you to check on her dentures.
What is Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation Dentistry is called Oral Conscious Sedation because you will not be under general anesthesia. You will simply spend the day under the effect of a drug that causes you to lose your anxiety and totally relax.
With today’s technology and pharmacology, there’s no reason to experience pain or anxiety with your trip to the dentist.
Dr. Howard Hoffman is the Miami area’s original sedation dentist. He has extensive training and decades of experience with oral conscious sedation dentistry. In his practice, he uses sedation techniques for two reasons:
1. Overcoming anxiety associated with a visit to the dentist.
2. More extensive treatment in less time.
Sedation allows us to accomplish more in one appointment and complete your beautiful smile in a shorter time frame. Cosmetic Makeovers with porcelain veneers, restorations (crowns, caps, fillings) or implants can be accomplished easily and comfortably during Sedation.
You can take a little pill just before you come to our office and it will help make your fears evaporate into thin air. As an added bonus, many of our patients actually forget their entire experience in our office. Of course, everyone’s experience is different. We strive to make your Sedation experience as comfortable for you as possible.
