Sedation Dentistry

Sedation Dentistry in Bloomingdale, IL

One of the most frequent worries expressed by patients when they find that they need dental treatment is how they will feel throughout the operation. You can relax knowing that different sedative techniques can be utilized depending on the requirements of each patient.

For routine dental treatments like cavity fillings, a local anesthetic is frequently enough to ensure the patient’s comfort at every stage of the procedure. However, in some cases, major procedures like implant placement or tooth extraction may require the use of general anesthesia.

The Dental Group of Bloomingdale aims to provide each patient with the highest level of comfort. We’ll help you become aware of what to expect from the required therapies so that you can prepare. Please get in touch with us at any time if you have any questions about the sedative options that are available when dental surgery is required.

Types of Dental Sedation

Two common types of sedation are offered to our patients:

Laughing Gas: Which uses nitrous oxide to “take off the edge.” This sedation isn’t designed to put you to sleep. You will stay awake during the treatment, and the nitrous oxide helps you remain relaxed and calm. It is common for patients to experience a sensation of heavy limbs when using nitrous oxide.
IV Sedation: Another option is the use of IV sedation. Technically this sedation doesn’t put you to sleep, but many people don’t remember the treatment, so they feel as though they slept through the procedure.

Regardless of the type of sedation that is used, a local anesthetic is utilized so that you will be numb when you wake up. This step helps with pain management during the first few hours after treatment.

Sedation Dentistry: What to Expect

If you choose to get sedation for your dental work, what can you expect? Our staff will help you determine the best course of action based on your needs. After that, we may go into great depth about the sedative’s administration and how you’ll feel during the surgery. Bewilderment, tiredness, and unsteadiness are the most frequent side effects upon awakening from sedation. Keep in mind that when the treatment is over, you must have a driver waiting for you.

You have the choice to select the level of sedation that best suits your needs. At the Dental Group of Bloomingdale, our staff is committed to providing the most pleasant options. In addition, we want our patients to feel confident in their ability to select the dental services that are right for them. If you have questions concerning the therapies we provide, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.

5-star reviews in Bloomingdale, IL

I've had an amazing experience with Dr Marwan and his assistant Maria. They were very professional and caring. Theu were very attentive and explained everything in details, which decreased my anxiety.I normally get very anxious and nervous whenever o need dental work but I felt at ease. They are wonderful and I would highly recommend them.

I have been going to this dental group for a while now. In the past, the "bedside manner" had not always been the best. However, today, the customer service was stellar, which goes a long way with me! Thanks for the great experience today! Very appreciative.

I’ve been coming here for a couple years now and always have a great experience. Ally is a great hygienist. She does a great cleaning and is very thorough. She is always friendly and makes sure you feel comfortable. She always remembers things we discussed in the previous cleaning from 6 months prior. All the doctors have been good so far as well. Very friendly and professional.

The team at the Dental Group is amazing! The office environment is very welcoming and clean. From the Receptionists to the Hygenists, to the Doctors themselves - they provide top notch care. Having later evening hours is hard to find as well, and they always have night appointments available. I definitely recommend Dental Group of Bloomingdale to anyone.
