Their FAQ
Answers from their website.
What is sedation dentistry?
Sedation dentistry uses techniques such as nitrous oxide or oral sedation to help patients feel calmer and more comfortable during dental treatment. It is often used for patients who feel anxious about dental visits. To learn how sedation works and what you can expect during your visit, read our guide on IV Sedation Dentistry.
Who can benefit from sedation dentistry?
Sedation dentistry may help patients with dental anxiety, a strong gag reflex, difficulty sitting through treatment, or fear that has caused them to delay care. It can make appointments feel more manageable and less stressful.
What types of sedation are available?
Sedation options may include nitrous oxide and oral sedation. The best choice depends on your level of anxiety, medical history, and the type of treatment being performed.
Will I be asleep during sedation dentistry?
Not necessarily. Many forms of dental sedation are designed to help you feel deeply relaxed rather than fully asleep. Your dentist can explain what to expect with the option recommended for you.
Is sedation dentistry safe?
Sedation dentistry is generally safe when provided appropriately and monitored by trained dental professionals. Your dentist will review your medical history and discuss whether sedation is suitable for you. If you are considering sedation dentistry, book a dental consultation with Pretoria Bridge Dental—we’ll take the time to answer your questions and make sure you feel fully comfortable.
Can sedation dentistry help if I avoid the dentist because of fear?
Yes. Sedation dentistry can help patients feel more at ease and make it easier to get needed dental care without as much stress or fear.
What qualifies as a dental emergency?
A dental emergency can be any dental problem that is in need of immediate treatment in order to stop bleeding, alleviate severe pain, or save a tooth. Severe infections in the mouth and gums are also considered a dental emergency since they can be life-threatening if they are not treated quickly. If you think you’re in need of emergency dental services, contact our experts today.
What should I do in an emergency dental situation?
The first thing you should do is contact us. If we are able to fit you in for a same day appointment, then we will book it for you. If not, we will direct you to somewhere that you can receive the care you need.
