Adding the study of sedation dentistry to your repertoire may not only draw in new patients, it will ensure a comfortable visit for returning patients as well.

Our Dental Courses in Sedation Dentistry Cover:

There are three types of dental sedation techniques, which include:

Oral Sedation:

Most dentists only provide oral sedation - Novocain is administered with a pill, swab, or needle. For many patients, this is a sufficient pain reliever, and for those who are frustrated or nervous (showing signs of dental phobia), may require higher doses.

Intravenous Sedation:

Administered through an I.V., sedation can provide a much more pleasant and virtually painless dentist visit. A common misconception about intravenous sedation is that the patient is asleep during their dental work. In fact, the patient may feel "sedated" or "out of it," but he or she is still awake.

General Anesthesia:

This is the only option where the patient is completely asleep thought their dental work. Only a small (although growing) number of dentists provide this alternative to their patients. For patients who suffer from dental phobia or who have had bad experiences with dental care in the past, general anesthesia may be the right choice for you!
