Dental anxiety is a serious problem because it prevents people from seeking dental care to maintain and protect their oral and overall health. At Sandpiper Dental, we empathize with your feelings! That’s why we focus on patient comfort and going the extra mile to help you feel safe and secure with us.
We Offer Oral Sedation for Your Comfort
We also offer oral sedation to help even the most nervous patients can receive quality dental care. Oral sedation means that our dentist prescribes a calming medication that we recommend taking about an hour before your appointment.
This gives the relaxing effects time to take hold so that when you arrive at our dental office, you’ll already feel very calm and relaxed. For this reason, we ask you to have a trusted driver get you safely to and from your appointment.
By the time you’re seated in your dental chair and we provide you with a comfortable neck pillow, you’ll feel calm enough for us to start treatment. You won’t go to sleep, and you will still be able to communicate with us as needed and watch TV to take your mind off the activity around you.
