Are you apprehensive about dental work? Have you put off seeing a dentist for years because of that fear? If so, sedation dentistry might be a solution for you.

Dr. Baumler is New York State certified in providing sedation dentistry to patients. This method of treatment is a safe, relaxed way for patients to undergo hours of dental work all while resting comfortably, and unaware of the procedures taking place.

Patients with severe anxiety about seeing a dentist resulting from bad experiences with prior practitioners, or just natural fear, can benefit greatly from both the procedure and the outcome of healthier teeth and gums.

It all starts with a little pill, taken the night before your procedure. The day of your appointment you will be given another pill that will gently relax you and put you into a dream-like state. During your procedure, you are carefully monitored and covered with a blanket for comfort.

At no time are you actually sleeping, but you will feel as if you are resting and will be able to speak. Patients experience a type of amnesia-effect afterward. Patients under this sedation have no recollection of the procedure.

Sedation Dentistry is a great way for some patients to undergo extensive, time-consuming procedures, all while being unaware of the time or the procedure. For more information regarding Sedation Dentistry, please call Dr. Baumler at (716) 297-1644 ext12.
