A Calm Dental Experience Awaits
For many of us, the dentist’s chair feels menacing and brings on an awful sense of dread. Every appointment can feel like a battle as you try to keep your composure, and there’s no ignoring the anxiety in your stomach on the days leading up to your appointment.
If you feel like you are just waiting for your appointment to end the moment you schedule it, there’s another way. We offer dental sedation in Tulsa to alleviate the anxiety and discomfort you feel during dental procedures. This helps you relax and reduces your perception of pain, which lets Dr. Fields treat you more comfortably.
Who Needs Dental Sedation?
- You have a fear of dental procedures.
- You have sensitive dental nerves.
- You need a complex or lengthy procedure.
How We Can Ease Your Anxiety
We understand that dental anxiety can make it difficult to receive the care you need. That’s why we offer a range of sedation options to help you relax and feel at ease during your procedure.
Conscious Sedation
With this method, you’ll receive a combination of oral and intravenous medication that will help you experience a deep state of relaxation to keep you calm and comfortable throughout your procedure. While you may not remember the specifics of your appointment, you’ll be able to respond to verbal cues and maintain your airway independently.
General Anesthesia
With general anesthesia, you’ll be completely unconscious during your procedure and unaware of what’s happening. This is ideal for complex procedures or patients with severe dental anxiety.
Your Sedation Plan
Dr. Fields and his team will work closely with you to determine the most suitable sedation option for your needs. Whichever sedation we recommend, we’ll make sure to prioritize your safety and well-being to ensure a smooth and stress-free dental experience.
The Benefits of Sedation Dentistry
- Reduce dental anxiety so you can relax and feel more at ease during your visit to our office.
- Enjoy enhanced pain control during your procedure to make the experience more comfortable.
- Feel more relaxed and comfortable throughout your entire procedure.
- Make it easier to cooperate with Dr. Fields to maximize efficiency during your visit.
Your Same-Day Sedation Experience
When getting same-day sedation at our practice, you’ll first meet with Dr. Fields to thoroughly discuss your procedure and run through what to expect from your chosen sedation option.
You’ll then receive your sedation, either orally or intravenously. Your dental work will be performed once you’re comfortably sedated, and our team will closely monitor your vital signs throughout.
