subject: Stress-free And Pain-free Idaho Falls Cosmetic Dentistry [print this page] When someone complains about a fear of heights, a fear of snakes, or a fear of meeting new people, you probably think that this is an unnecessary fear that is somehow limiting their ability to enjoy life. However, when someone tells you that he or she is afraid to go to the dentist, deep down inside, we can all sympathize with them. In fact, maybe you are also afraid of going to the dentist and have avoided going to the dentist for years due to that unconscious and unavoidable fear.
Gentle dentist- is it possible?
Perhaps you are looking for a gentle dentist or even better, a pain free dentist. Well, it may be surprising for you to know that your dentist probably has an even greater fear of causing you pain than you have of receiving it. That is because every dentist wants to be the most pain free dentist and the most gentle dentist possible. Therefore, you and your dentist are in agreement, and for that reason sedation dentistry is more and more coming into vogue.
Through sedation dentistry, also known as twilight dentistry, your dentist can eliminate the pain of a dental procedure, and he or she can eliminate any anxiety and stress that might normally be involved with you going to the dentist - stress and anxiety that in some cases would be enough to prevent someone from going to the dentist entirely.
Sedation dentistry is now available in Idaho Falls
Fortunately, if you are an Idaho Falls resident, you too can benefit from the best that sedation dentistry has to offer by visiting the cosmetic dental practices in Idaho Falls. No one needs to explain why you or your loved ones are afraid of going to the dentist. The answer is obvious. Either you have had a bad experience of extreme pain, or maybe it was as simple as a soul deadening comment a prior dentist made about the quality or look of your teeth.
Whether it is fear of pain, or a general feeling of stress and anxiety that comes from the invasive reality of having someone poke and prod around inside your mouth, sedation cosmetic dentists can solve the problem completely through his or her advanced sedation dentistry practice.
How does sedation dentistry work?
Contrary to popular belief, when your dentist uses sedation dentistry, or twilight dentistry, to remove your anxiety and fear, and to remove any pain that might normally be endured, you do not fall asleep. Therefore, the term sleep dentistry is a misnomer even though twilight dentistry is often referred to with the term sleep dentistry.
The kind of sedation dentistry that is administered by Idaho Falls dentists can be as simple as taking a sedative pill that brings you into a dream-like state of complete relaxation or having in-house Registered Nurse administer an IV sedation to relax you. In this state, time will go by quickly, and you will likely remember very little from your dental procedure.
Indeed, you may be surprised to find out, just after sitting down, that your dental procedure is already completed. An additional benefit is that this mild form of sedation is far safer and more convenient than full anesthesia that is used in more complicated surgeries.
Depending on your need and depending up on the recommendation of your dentist, you may take a pill about an hour before leaving for the dentist, or you might take one after you arrive at the dental offices. Of course, you will need a friend or relative to drive you and take you home when undergoing sedation dentistry, but clearly the benefits outweigh any inconvenience the need for transportation assistance might cause.
