The Sedation Dentist for North San Diego including Carlsbad, Encinitas and San Marcos CA
If you are one of many people who have moderate to severe anxiety about scheduling your next dental appointment, sedation dentistry can give you the peace of mind to ensure you receive the treatment you need. An experienced sedation dentist like Drs. Stephen and Kimberly Dankworth understands your concerns and offers a variety of sedation dentistry options as well as many other comforts to help you maintain proper oral health care.
Why Sedation Dentistry?
Visiting a sedation dentist gives you the ability to overcome any obstacles you may face regarding your oral health care. You may have had a bad experience in the past with a dentist, or possibly remember an unpleasant office visit from your childhood. This can often cause fear and anxiety which is extremely difficult to overcome. Our office, located in Carslbad and convenient to Encinitas and San Marcos, CA, offers two types of sedation dentistry services including laughing gas and oral conscious sedation which are both safe and very effective.
How Sedation Dentistry Works
Here at La Costa Dental Excellence, we offer laughing gas and conscious sedation for “sleep dentistry“. Laughing gas can calm you, block pain, and you may not even remember what happened during your appointment. With our trusted and safe conscious sedation process, you will awake with little or no memory of your dental experience - yet obtain the benefits of a beautiful smile!
Prior to your conscious sedation appointment, you will swallow a small pill provided by our sedation dentist. A friend or family member will drive you to our Carlsbad office as the conscious sedation sets in. By the time you arrive, you will be drowsy and comfortable. You will continue to relax in your treatment room with a warm blanket. Your vital signs will be monitored as our highly trained and experienced clinical team will fulfill your dental needs.
