Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Sedation

Do sedation options work for most patients?

Yes, our dental sedation will work for most patients. We offer oral sedation because we understand that patients with moderate to severe anxiety will have an easier time keeping up with the routine care they need to maintain a healthy mouth, as well as any needed or desired treatments. We'll go over the details of the process of providing sedation before your appointment so you're relaxed when treatment begins.

What sedation options are available to me?

At Doering Family Dental, we're proud to offer oral sedation in pill form, which delivers a deeply relaxing effect just in time for your procedure. This means you will need to arrange transportation to and from your appointment because it will need time to take effect before your treatment and will take time to wear off afterwards.

Are your sedation options safe?

Yes, our dental sedation is completely safe. Oral sedation uses an FDA-approved pill to give you an all-over feeling of relaxation. Dr. Doering's decades of training and experience allow him to safely administer the proper dose that's right for each individual patient. You can talk to us about your concerns so we can make sure you have everything you need to feel comfortable in our care.

Why is relieving dental anxiety important?

Fear of the dentist can be so severe that a patient will not come into the office for decades at a time. Because oral health affects overall health, this person is likely suffering not only in their mouth but also in other areas of their body. It's important that we find a solution for the fear so that every patient can remain healthy.

I had a broken molar and they got me in quickly for an exam. Even though the initial visit was just for an assessment, the doctor took pity on me and squeezed me into the schedule and fitted me for a temporary crown on the spot. I can't thank him enough. Several years ago he fitted me with a different crown and it has also held up perfectly.
