Dentistry under Sedation Valencia, Santa Clarita, CA

Have you been postponing your dental check ups? Do you shudder at the sound of a drill? If the thought of going to the dentist provokes extreme anxiety, dentistry under sedation is an option for you. This safe and effective approach to dentistry allows even the most nervous patients to relax during dental procedures. Patients in the Valencia, Santa Clarita, CA area have an alternative to more traditional dentistry through Dr. Benn Javid, DDS and Dr. Shawn Javid, DDS at Promenade Dentistry.

Sedation provokes images of beeping machines, IV needles, and oxygen masks. However, at Promenade Dentist, patients receive a pill prior to their appointment and then are allowed to relax. While patients become very drowsy, they are never technically unconscious. Vital signs, including pulse, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation are monitored constantly. In addition to the sedative pills, patients are provided with warm blankets and allowed to listen to music. After the procedure, patients are monitored as they recover from the relaxing effects of the sedative medication and they then may go home on the same day.

Dr. Shawn and Benn Javid take a holistic approach to dentistry, ensuring that the needs of the whole patient are met. This truly unique experience includes opportunities for massage and aromatherapy, making a trip to the dentist less traumatic or even making it pleasant.

Patients with the following may benefit from sedative dentistry:

- sensitive teeth
- past traumatic dental experiences
- fear of needles
- extreme anxiety
- Resistance to numbing medications
