Have You Ever Tried Sedation Dentistry in Seattle?
Do Yourself A Favor – Ask For Sedation Dentistry in Seattle.
You hear it all the time in bad movies where somebody has to go to the dentist: “Knock me out doc! I don’t want to feel it!”
For a while, being totally unconscious during dental surgery was the only method for the overly anxious to get through their much-needed treatment.
This, however, is now.
Today, we have sedation dentistry in Seattle. There is nothing like it. You can fall gently asleep and wake with no memory of the work we just finished. Most people think its magic. But it’s not.
Dr. McKay has extensive training and experience in sedation dentistry in Seattle. He is here to ease your fears and anxieties. He will discuss with you your level of anxiety, and discuss with you how best to treat it. If you just want the pill without the explanation, we can do that too.
Most patients find that they do not have to be put “completely under” as in general anesthesia in order to complete their dental work. The process Dr. McKay uses is called “conscious sedation.”
Dr. McKay will give you a sedative pill to take about an hour prior to your dental procedure. (Needless to say, you will need a companion to drive you to and from your appointment.) This medication has been found to relax most patients to the point that they can remain relaxed throughout the entire procedure even to the point of napping. What’s more, once their treatment is completed and the sedative wears off, they have little or no memory of their visit. In addition, there is little or no discomfort the day after.
At your free consultation, Dr. McKay will discuss with you all of your sedation options so that there are no surprises when you begin your treatment. We always inform before we perform.
