You are not alone if you feel nervous or anxious about visiting the dentist! Many patients find that dental fear or phobia prevents them from visiting the dentist regularly and receiving the care they need. This results in a vicious cycle of not receiving necessary treatment, which leads to declining dental health and the need for more complex and overwhelming treatment procedures. This type of situation could lead to increased avoidance of the dentist.
At Avondale Dental Centre, we understand your fears and concerns, and we aim to make exceptional dentistry as welcoming, pleasant, and comfortable as we can for our patients. Our friendly and caring team goes above and beyond to get to know you and understand your desires and goals for your smile and dental health. Our dentists are gentle, compassionate, and highly skilled, making treatment procedures as comfortable as possible. We also offer IV sedation dentistry for patients who are fearful and want to undergo dental procedures in a state of twilight sleep, allowing us to complete multiple procedures during a single visit comfortably.
Is IV Sedation Dentistry in Auckland, AK, Right for Me?
IV sedation is delivered intravenously with our dentists monitoring your vital signs, medication levels, and heart rate throughout the procedure. We can adjust the medication levels as needed to ensure your comfort the entire time.
With IV sedation, patients are still responsive throughout treatment, but due to the nature of the medication, they have little to no memory of their dental treatment procedures. It's a good idea to arrange for transportation to and from the dental clinic, and you should plan to rest and recover the remainder of the day as the medication wears off.
