Sleep Dentistry Vancouver
Explore Sleep Dentistry at AA Dental in Vancouver
If you’ve ever felt anxious about visiting the dentist, you’re not alone. Many patients have experienced relief through sleep dentistry or sedation dentistry. At AA Dental in Vancouver, we offer a range of sedation options to make your dental visit as comfortable as possible. Here are some real-life experiences to help you understand how sleep dentistry can work for you:
Oral Sedation
One patient shared her story of overcoming panic attacks and a strong gag reflex with the help of oral sedation. Taking a pill an hour before her appointment, she reported:
“The next thing I knew, I was home.”
This approach helped her feel at ease without any lingering anxiety, making the entire process seamless and stress-free.
Another patient avoided the dentist for four years due to intense fear. After trying oral sedation for procedures like three fillings and a root canal, she said:
“I couldn’t even remember what happened, but I’d definitely go back.”
General Anaesthesia
For more complex cases, such as a root canal, some patients opt for general anaesthesia. Administered via a shot, this method keeps the patient unconscious during the procedure. One patient described the experience as:
“When I woke up, it was all done—a pleasant and stress-free experience.”
Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas)
For those seeking lighter sedation, nitrous oxide is a popular choice. Patients often focus on inhaling the gas, which helps distract them from the procedure. One patient shared:
“The gas made it easy to think about other things and stay calm.”
Another noted that even with significant anxiety, a higher dose of nitrous oxide allowed her to feel relaxed and unaware of the procedure’s details.
