Sedation Dentistry - Here is how it works

Step 1
Making your first appointment. This is difficult for many anxious people, so we try to make this as easy as possible.

Step 2
Welcoming visit. We gather information regarding your helath and discuss with you your wants and desires. If you're comfortable, we will take x-rays and look in your mouth. But you will never be judged or embarrassed.

Step 3
Preparing for your sedation visit. We will give you a prescription for a sedative to take the night before your first appointment to guarantee a good night's sleep and to make sure you wake up relaxed.

Step 4
Arriving for Treatment. Your companion will bring you to the office. Additional medications will be provided to create the ultimate in relaxation. Dr. Menlove and his experienced sedation team will monitor you throughout your entire visit.

Step 5
Going home with your new smile. Your companion will take you home and stay with you until you are  completely recovered from your sedation medication.

Step 6
Most patients feel no discomfort or residual effects from the dental visit and you will be thrilled with all the compliments you will get.
