For many, a trip to the dentist can be fraught with unease or even fear. Whether it’s the sound of the drill, past negative experiences, or anxiety about discomfort, having dental work done isn’t always easy. But at Almeida & Bell Dental in Denver and Lone Tree, CO, there’s a solution designed especially for patients with dental anxiety—IV sedation dentistry. By making your experience more soothing and stress-free, sedation transforms how you approach oral care. Here’s how it works and what makes it an excellent option for Denver residents.
IV Sedation Dentistry Explained
IV sedation, also known as intravenous sedation, is administered directly into your bloodstream through a small needle. Unlike general anesthesia, which renders you unconscious, IV sedation creates a deep state of relaxation while keeping you responsive. You’ll remain calm, comfortable, and blissfully unaware of the noises, sensations, and time passing during your procedure.
At Almeida & Bell Dental, Dr. Almeida and Dr. Bell specialize in using IV sedation to ensure patients have the most soothing experience possible.
Who Needs Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation dentistry isn’t just for those who feel nervous about cleanings or other routine procedures. It can help with a variety of needs, such as:
- Dental Anxiety: If the thought of visiting the dentist leaves you feeling panicked or overly stressed, sedation can offer peace of mind.
- Complex or Lengthy Treatments: Procedures like root canals, extractions, or dental implants can take significant time. IV sedation makes it feel like only minutes have passed, no matter how long the procedure takes.
- Sensitive Teeth or Gums: If you experience pain in reaction to minor dental work, sedation can help.
- Discomfort From Gag Reflexes: For those who struggle with gag reflex sensitivity, sedation keeps the experience more comfortable.
