Conscious Sedation Dentistry

Sedation Dentistry is the industry’s answer to simple, safe and pain-free dental procedures. Prior to your procedure, you take a small pill that places you into a peaceful rest. During your rest, you can have any type of work done and feel nothing. When you wake up, you don’t remember the experience and have no pain. Sedation Dentistry is great for people who have:

  • High fear and anxiety
  • Numbing difficulties
  • Memories of traumatic dental experiences
  • Complicated dental problems
  • High gag reflex
  • Dislike of odors, tastes, and sounds related to dental treatment
  • Time restrictions
  • Tooth sensitivity

 

Sedation Dentistry Patient Testimonials

 

 

“My experience with Cedar Cliff Dental began three years ago when I had severe tooth pain, hadn’t been to a dentist in years, and was terrified of Novocain shots.

Not only were they able to schedule me in the next day, but they never made me feel guilty for neglecting my dental care and they never tried to get more money out of me. They helped me form a long term plan that would take care of the work I needed done, with what I could afford.

I only used the sedation method once and ever since, have not had any issues with Novocain shots, or coming in for my appointments. I definitely owe Dr. Hatcher and the staff a huge thanks for curing me of my reservations about going to the dentist! I would recommend Cedar Cliff Dental to anyone who is looking for a competent, friendly, no pressure experience!”

“When I first came to Dr. Hatcher’s office, I hadn’t been to a dentist in nine years due to fear of anything connected with teeth/dentists. I had broken two teeth and couldn’t eat, so I had to get them fixed. I chose Dr. Hatcher because his ad mentioned “conscious sedation.” Everyone was very kind to me and did their best to ease my fears and nerves. I needed a lot of work done, root canal and crown, extraction, bone graft and implant, rootplaning, etc. I used conscious sedation for these procedures and it was wonderful. I wasn’t afraid, felt no pain, and hours flew by like minutes. A year after my first visit, I was able to have a small cavity filled without any sedation, so I’ve made a lot of progress! I no longer dread going to the dentist, and I can get my teeth cleaned regularly, too.”

“Felt very comfortable with the staff and liked the little touches like the blanket during the procedure. Would not have done the procedure without sedation, really liked having the option of sedation.”
