Sedation Dentistry in Pawtucket, RI
Plenty of people put off the dentist because the chair makes them anxious. If that’s you, sedation dentistry in Pawtucket can help you get through your visit calmly, and you’re in good company.
Relax through your appointment
For many patients we can offer a low dose of oral sedation, such as Valium taken about an hour before your visit, so you arrive relaxed and the time passes easily. We review your health history first to make sure it’s a safe fit, and you’ll want someone to drive you home afterward.
A calm, judgment-free office
We keep things slow and clear. You’ll always know what’s coming next, our rooms are large and comfortable, and we never rush you. If it’s been years since your last visit, that’s okay. We start where you are.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is dental sedation safe?
For most healthy patients, a low dose of oral sedation is very safe. We go over your health history and current medications first to make sure it’s a good fit for you.
Will I be asleep during my visit?
No. Oral sedation keeps you relaxed and calm but still awake and able to respond. You’ll just feel far more at ease than usual.
Can I drive myself home afterward?
It’s best to have someone drive you, since the medication can stay in your system for a while after your appointment.
