Feeling anxious about visiting the dentist may keep you from getting the routine dental care you need. This can lead to an uncomfortable cycle of only showing up when there's a problem, which then causes more anxiety about complex dental treatments that are needed to restore your smile.
At Lifetime Dental, we stop the cycle with options for sedation dentistry that make it comfortable for you to complete your dental care, whether you need a simple filling or you're facing something more complex like oral surgery.
If you need multiple procedures to restore your dental health, intravenous (IV) sedation may be the solution you need. Here's what you should know.
What Is IV Sedation?
During IV sedation, a highly skilled anaesthetist delivers medication directly to you intravenously.
