Sedation
dentistry allows you to be sedated just enough to be pain free
and unaware of the treatment, as if you were relaxing. That
is why it is normally referred to as conscious sedation dentistry.
So if you have sensitive teeth, a fear of dentists, have a bad
gag reflex, hate needles, or have limited time to spend on dental
care at the dentist, Sedation during dentistry procedures can
help you.
Whatever
the case may be sedation by your dentists can help you be more
anxiety free during your dentistry treatment. Your dentist's
ultimate goal is to make your visit to the dentist a relaxing
and enjoyable one. Since you are completely comfortable, relaxed,
and pain free your sedation dentist can do years of dental treatments
in one or two dental visits.
With sedation your dentist can restore sore gums to good dental
health, fix a chipped tooth, replace crowns or dentures, whiten
yellow or stained teeth, and more. All pain free.
THE
WAND
The
Wand PlusŪ Computer Controlled Anesthetic Delivery System
You
may have heard about a device known as "The Wand".
The wand is essentially a computer controlled injection. This
means that the injection is guaranteed to be slow and therefore
more comfortable. Obviously it is possible for the dentist to
control the speed himself with a standard injection, but the
idea of the wand is to take out the "human error"
in the speed of the injection and therefore ensure a reproducable
painless injection every time................
The
Wand is a useful gadget because it doesn't look like a traditional
syringe, it works really well! Needle phobics love it... it's
a bit slow though, but apart from that, no major disadvantages!
If your dentist offers it, cool, if not, many dentists are well
able to give painless injections without it - it's not that
widely available.
Here
at The Smiles Dr we utilise this technology for the benefit
our Patients.
We
want to make sure that your Dental Experience is the most comfortable
and pain free one yet.
