Sedation dentistry refers to a specific type of dentistry in which the patient is given a pharmacological agent that helps them to calm down and relax before and during a dental procedure. It is not the same as anesthesia; where the patient is awake and aware while sedated and some have even described it as being similar to the feeling you get after a couple of glasses of wine.<\/p>\n
Different levels of sedation are recommended for different types of procedures. Light, medium, and heavy sedation are available depending on the nature of the dental procedure to be performed. At Crystal Dental Centers, we\u2019ve long been a leader in sedation dentistry in Los Angeles<\/strong><\/a>, along with being leading cosmetic dentists in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n Major procedures such as wisdom tooth extraction, root canals<\/a><\/strong>, dental implants<\/a><\/strong>, and other invasive operations rely on sedation to ensure the patient has an anxiety-free experience.<\/p>\n Many common dental procedures are much more tolerable for the patient with light or medium sedation. Receiving a filling, replacing a crown, and other processes that are generally low-pain but still require time in the chair can be made easier with sedation. It\u2019s all about ensuring the patient is comfortable and calm during their appointment. Patients with super high dental anxiety or very low pain thresholds may also prefer sedation for common procedures such as teeth cleaning.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re looking for a cosmetic dentist but are concerned about pain or discomfort, look no further, the professionals at Crystal Dental ensure safety and comfort and will work with you every step of the way.
