“The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.”
With all due respect to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, “fear itself” is simply not what most people feel afraid of. They’re afraid of spiders, of heights, of needles, of clowns—and for thousands of people; it’s the dentist that is the main catalyst of their fear.
Does this sound familiar? First of all: you’re not alone. Each year, millions of Americans avoid the dentist. In fact, it is estimated that 75 million people in the United States live with some degree of dental fear.
The good news? Our dental team can help you.
A popular treatment option called oral sedation dentistry—conscious sedation through the use of oral medications—can help eliminate your dental anxiety and fear. The treatment allows you to relax and feel comfortable through your entire dental appointment. Due to the type of oral medications used, you’ll remember little-to-nothing of your time in the dental chair the next day. It’s that simple.
Think of that nagging feeling you get after avoiding the dentist for far too long. Or worse, the fear that accompanies actually forcing yourself to go into the dentist? Imagine never having to experience either of those feelings again. With our office, you don’t have to.
Here, Dr Treva D Lee, DDS MAGD FICOI has received exceptional training by leading oral sedation dentistry instructors and is equipped with the knowledge, expertise and equipment to ensure that you have a safe and pleasant dental experience.
