Sleep Dentistry Puts Dental Patients at Ease

Dentistry in Streetsville provides a full range of dental services to people in Mississauga, Ontario, and across Greater Toronto. Let’s be honest. Going to the dentist can be nerve-racking for many people.

Whether it is having tartar removed from one’s teeth with a metal pick, the sound of a drill, or the taste of fluoride, many people dislike visiting their dentist - no matter how kind and friendly they happen to be. In extreme cases, people can develop an irrational fear of the dentist that leaves them paralyzed and unable to sit in the dentist’s chair.

There is hope for people who are afraid of the dentist. It is called “sleep dentistry,” or sedation dentistry, and it is offered by Dentistry in Streetsville. Simply put, this process involves anxious patients being sedated or put to sleep during a dental procedure, whether having a cavity filled or a wisdom tooth extracted. Basically, patients who require sedation are given a dose of laughing gas to help them relax and remain calm during a dental procedure. The laughing gas is administered by certified dentists. Or, people with severe anxiety can be put completely to sleep by the anesthesia team at Dentistry in Streetsville.

Sedation dentistry is growing in popularity and is proven to help people who have a genuine fear of the dentist. Patients who choose to be put to sleep for a procedure wake up rested and feeling calm with no ill side effects. The bottom line is that the staff at Dentistry in Streetsville want to ensure that each patient feels calm, relaxed and confident in visiting them. Our staff know that trust is critically important to building a long-lasting and respectful relationship with their patients.
