Does your fear of the dentist cause you to avoid receiving necessary dental treatments? Does the thought of seeing a dentist, or even scheduling an appointment, give you anxiety?

Fortunately, Dr. Mohr of Mohr Exceptional Dentistry offers such patients the option of sedation dentistry, including IV sedation, at his Placentia, Orange County office. Eliminate the stress and worry that arise when you need to tend to your oral health. Regardless of the extent of treatment you may require, your visit will be a pleasant, tranquil one. Contact our Placentia practice today to determine whether you are a candidate for IV sedation treatment.
Administering IV Sedation
Our highly experienced anesthesiologist will be responsible for administering the IV sedation, as well as monitoring your pulse and oxygen during the procedure.
The process involves a quick, simple shot of medication injected into a vein. This method of sedation dentistry is proven to be very safe and effective. As with all medical procedures, it is important to ask questions and discuss details, such as medical history and possible risks, with Dr. Mohr prior to commencing.
Benefits of IV Sedation
IV sedation allows patients to remain conscious, yet in a deep state of relaxation. Patients may not even remember the entire dental procedure. There are a number of benefits to IV sedation, including:
- Proven to be safe and effective
- Little to no memory of the experience, including disturbing sounds, tastes, and smells
- Long-lasting solution, so you can undergo lengthy, extensive treatments totally at ease
- Procedures can be condensed into one appointment
- Less stress during treatment allows for less after-treatment fatigue
- Completely, 100 percent pain-free dental procedures
- No difficulty becoming numb
- Eliminate fears and anxieties associated with dental visits
- Hassle-free dental visit
- Minimal recovery required
Many people allow their fear of the dentist to prevent them from seeking help even for serious dental problems, which inevitably worsen over time. Seeing a qualified dentist is necessary to achieving good dental health, and now we make it easier than ever. IV sedation is safely administered at our Placentia dental practice to ensure each patient's peace of mind and optimum comfort.
