Is Sedation Dentistry Safe?

Sedation Dentistry in Lewisville TX When I discuss sedation dentistry with new patients, I encounter many misconceptions. The purpose of today’s dentistry article is to de-bunk some of the most common myths about dental sedation.

Myth #1: With Sedation Dentistry, You Are Completely Unconscious

Some nervous dental patients are not only afraid of receiving treatment; they also fear the thought of not being in control. At The Lewisville Dentist, we offer different levels of sedation, but none of the sedation options put you completely to sleep. With oral sedation you are relaxed but not totally knocked out. When we need to ask a dental sedation patient a question during the treatment, the patient is able to hear, understand, and respond.

Myth #2: Dental Sedation Should Only Be Used For Extensive Dental Treatment

Anxiety-free dentistry is completely safe. Many nervous sedation dentistry patients request sedation for routine exams and procedures.

Myth #3: Most Dental Insurance Companies Do Not Cover Sleep Dentistry

Some Texas dental insurers do cover sedation. Check with your insurer for details about your  dental insurance benefits.

Myth #4: Sleep Dentistry Is Still Experimental

Cosmetic dentistry professionals have been safely providing sedation for many years. The Lewisville Dentist meets all the requirements advised by the American Dental Association. Millions of Americans and thousands of Texas dental patients have safely received sedation for dental treatment.
