Why your Family Dentist in Simi Valley will make your Dental Visit a Gentle and Comfortable Experience

Many people, ourselves included, have a strong belief that oral health directly relates to general health and wellness. When dental anxiety stands in the way of seeing the dentist, it is also standing in the way of optimal well-being.

If you are one of the many people who feel afraid at the mere idea of seeing the dentist, we understand. Dental anxiety is far more common than you may imagine, and it is nothing to feel ashamed of. Your family dentist in Simi Valley goes above and beyond the norm to create an environment that fosters peace of mind. In addition to a friendly, highly skilled staff, Dr. Muradian also provides sedation dentistry services.

Benefits of Oral Conscious Sedation

Dental phobia is ironic. When you fear the dentist, or the treatment that you may need, you avoid the visits that can keep you from developing painful problems. It's a rather vicious cycle. Using oral conscious sedation, we help patients overcome their fears, one visit at a time.

Oral conscious sedation is one of the most common sedation dentistry techniques, and one in which Dr. Muradian has completed advanced training. One of the primary benefits of this method is that patients already feel more relaxed by the time they arrive at the office. This is because sedative medication is taken about an hour beforehand. Once the visit commences, additional dosage may be administered if needed to assure full comfort.

This mid-level sedation service is an excellent option for patients who are mildly to severely anxious about dental care. It calms the central nervous system so that the stimuli of the dental office has no effect. If you choose oral conscious sedation, you can expect to feel very relaxed, even drowsy. However, you will be able to breathe and swallow without assistance. Throughout your treatment, we monitor vital signs to ensure safety, and we only release you into the care of the loved one who has escorted you to your visit.

Would you like to put dental anxiety to rest for good? Visit your family dentist in Simi Valley for more information on oral conscious sedation.
