Oral Surgery and Sedation Dentistry in Charlotte NC

Dentists will all agree that the fear of pain, not pain itself, wards of people from dental clinics. This is why sedation techniques have been developed to help patients calm their patients down when going through a dental procedure.

It's normal to feel scared about undergoing a dental procedure. Statistics show that one out of ten suffer from dental anxiety and these people would rather live with the pain than go to a dentist to have the problem fixed. The question is, what are these people afraid of? Some people are afraid of the thought of getting a tooth extraction and the like. Others are afraid of getting a Novocain injection to numb the mouth during the actual procedure. They are, therefore, stuck before they even start with the procedure.

To solve the problem, sedation dentists now give their patients a pill that do not put patients to sleep, but puts them under conscious sedation. The pill basically brings the patient into a dream-like, relaxed state that will help them become less anxious about the procedure.

With new sedation techniques, dental patients no longer have to be afraid of going to the dentist! At Southpark Oral Surgery, Dr. Kevin Bond and his staff can give you a stress-free and fear-free dental visit. All you need to do is ask about their sedation methods.
