Comfortable Dental Care with Dr. Corey Mazer at Old Milton Dental
At Old Milton Dental, we understand that dental anxiety can prevent you from receiving the care you need. That’s why we offer conscious sedation dentistry to make your dental visits in Alpharetta, Georgia, as relaxing and stress-free as possible. Led by Dr. Corey Mazer, our team is dedicated to providing personalized care that prioritizes your comfort.
What is Conscious Sedation Dentistry?
Conscious sedation dentistry involves using medication to help you relax during dental procedures. Unlike general anesthesia, it allows you to remain awake and responsive while feeling significantly calmer. This method is ideal for patients who:
- Experience dental anxiety or fear
- Have a low pain threshold
- Possess a sensitive gag reflex
- Require extensive dental work
- Struggle with sitting still due to medical conditions
Benefits of Conscious Sedation
- Anxiety Reduction: Eases fears associated with dental visits.
- Enhanced Comfort: Minimizes discomfort during treatments.
- Efficiency: Allows multiple procedures in a single appointment.
- Improved Experience: Limited memory of the procedure can make future visits less daunting.
Our Sedation Options
Nitrous Oxide Sedation
Also known as “laughing gas,” nitrous oxide is inhaled through a mask to induce a state of relaxation. Its effects wear off quickly, enabling you to resume normal activities shortly after your appointment.
Oral Sedation
Oral sedation involves taking a prescribed medication before your procedure. You’ll feel drowsy but remain awake and able to respond. You’ll need someone to drive you to and from the appointment.
