As a sedation dentist in Bellevue, we are changing the way that people receive dental care. Traditionally, dentists perform treatments while a patient is fully aware. We will sometimes administer local anesthesia with a shot in the gums of the specific quadrant that we are working on. This is effective but getting a shot can often lead people to have anxiety as can being aware of the procedure itself. We offer another solution using sedation.
Needing to stretch out the treatment time means that one may need to take more time off of work and may delay the overall recovery time. By simply providing sedation, this inconvenience can be avoided entirely. For more information or to see a sedation dentist, give us a call at (425) 249-9186.
