Sedation

Dr. Farideh Amin is Certified in Oral Conscious Sedation 

Conscious Sedation

Fear has no boundaries; there is no age, gender, economic, or race discrimination. Research shows that about 30 % of the population avoids going to the dentist due to fear. Internet access, media, and education play an important role in public awareness regarding periodontal disease and the risks associated with avoiding treatment, so containing any fear or anxiety is important in treating dental and periodontal conditions.

To help ease the patient’s fear and anxiety regarding their treatment, we offer a number of types of conscious sedation. These are very safe drugs that greatly reduce a patient’s level of anxiety during their procedure. If you might be interested in conscious sedation prior to treatment, do not hesitate to let us know.
