Everyone knows dentists’ important role in helping you maintain good oral health. However, dental anxiety, can make dental visits a stressful experience. At Martin Taylor Dentistry, we counter the effects of stress and fear with oral conscious sedation. Sedation dentistry can take the fear out of dental visits to keep your smile in peak condition year after year. Drs. Melvin Abraham, Jeff Martin and William Taylor are your go-to dentists for anxious patients in or near Tucson, Arizona. We invite you to visit our dental clinic to kickstart your journey to anxiety-free dentistry.

What to Expect from Sedation Dentistry

At Martin Taylor Dentistry, we use medication to help our patients cope with dental anxiety and fear. Oral conscious sedation is a pill you take before your treatment to help you relax in the dental chair. It’s a moderate sedative that produces drowsiness to keep you calm and tranquil during your dental treatment. You’re still conscious of your surroundings and can communicate with your dentist during your procedure, but you’ll feel comfortable and relaxed instead of stressed and fearful. As the effects of this sedative can last beyond the time frame of your treatment, you’ll need a driver to take you home afterward. 

Your comfort and peace of mind are as important to us as your oral health. Through oral sedation, Drs. Melvin, Martin and Taylor can help relieve anxiety and fear and make your visits a positive experience. Here are just a few ways you benefit from sedation dentistry:

• Stress-free Dental Visits 

Oral sedation eliminates anxiety and fear to make dental care a breeze. From routine checkups and cleanings to restorative treatments, you can look forward to stress-free dental visits. You’ll be able to establish a good working relationship with our dental team that can keep your smile looking and feeling its best year after year. 

• Ability to Endure Lengthy Treatments

Sedation dentistry makes it easier to endure multiple or lengthy restorative treatments, such as root canals, implants or deep cleaning for periodontal therapy. Oral sedation keeps you comfortable and relaxed the entire time you’re in the dental chair. It also reduces the gag reflex many patients experience during dental procedures. 

• Pain-free Dentistry  

The fear of pain should never deter you from receiving quality dental care. Oral sedation works with local anesthesia to eliminate pain and discomfort during dental treatments.

• Quality Dental Care

Oral sedation makes it easier for you to receive quality dental care regularly. You’ll no longer have the compulsion to cancel your appointments or stay away from your dentist! When our patients are relaxed and comfortable, we can work quicker and more accurately and precisely. You can expect productive visits that yield positive results in maintaining or restoring oral health.
