Their FAQ
Answers from their website.
Is sedation therapy safe?
Yes. Sedation is considered safe when administered by trained dental professionals who monitor vital signs and follow strict protocols.
Who is a candidate for sedation?
Patients with dental anxiety, low pain tolerance, extensive treatment needs, or special medical or physical requirements may benefit from sedation therapy.
Are there any precautions?
Certain health conditions, medications, or pregnancy may require special consideration. Your dentist will review your medical history and discuss any risks before treatment.
Will I remember the procedure?
Depending on the type of sedation, you may have little to no memory of the procedure, which helps reduce anxiety for future visits.
How long do traditional veneers last?
With proper care, veneers can last 10–15 years before needing to be replaced.
Are veneers painful to get?
The procedure is minimally invasive and typically not painful with only minor enamel preparation required. There is some mild discomfort.
Can veneers be whitened?
No. Veneers do not respond to whitening treatments, so it’s important to choose the desired shade during placement.
What’s the difference between traditional and clip-on veneers?
Traditional veneers are permanent, custom-bonded shells, while clip-on veneers are temporary, removable, and require no alteration to your natural teeth.
