anxiety-free DENTISTRY
Anxiety-free dentistry is a service provided in which the patient is given medication that will help them relax and feel calm during a dental procedure. This service can be especially helpful for patients who are anxious or fearful about going to the dentist. If you tend to experience anxiety when undergoing dental procedures, be sure to talk to us at Kisling Family Dentistry about it and find the right option for you.
HOW DOES ANXIETY-FREE DENTISTRY WORK?
At Kisling Family Dentistry, we understand that nerves can get the best of us. We offer two solutions to help ease those who suffer from dental anxiety. Nitrous Oxide is a good option for those who need something to help with their anxiety during the appointment but want to still be able to still drive themselves home afterwards and have no side effects after the visit. Nitrous oxide is safe and widely used for people of all ages with minimal risks.
The other option is medication anxiolysis. If you are a good candidate for this, Dr. Kisling can prescribe a medication you fill at your pharmacy that you take prior to coming to your appointment to help relax you. You are still fully awake and aware of your surroundings, but this medication takes the stress away to make the visit as smooth as possible. We do ask that patients taking this medication have a friend or family member drive them to or from their visit as it can cause drowsiness.
Anxiety-Free Dentistry can provide several benefits for patients, including:
- Reduced anxiety and fear
- Fewer or no complications during the dental procedure
- Quicker recovery time after the procedure
- Reduced need for pain medication after the procedure
