Redefining Dental Visits

Sedation dentistry challenges the traditional notion of dental anxiety, offering a transformative, tranquil experience, where every procedure feels like a gentle breeze

The mere thought of a dentist's appointment can evoke anxiety for many. With sedation dentistry, these fears are gently put to rest. Whether it's the hum of dental equipment, the fear of potential discomfort, or general dental phobia, sedation offers a solution. At Hillside Dental Care, we use sedation as a tool to erase those apprehensions, paving the way for a relaxed, comfortable, and efficient dental visit.

Benefits Beyond Comfort

Sedation dentistry not only eases anxiety but also allows for multiple procedures in a single visit, minimizes the sensation of passing time, and often provides a degree of amnesia about the dental procedure.

FAQs

Providing clarity on common queries!

  • Sedation dentistry has a strong safety record, but it's essential to discuss your medical history and any medications you're taking with your dentist to determine the best and safest sedation option for you.

  • Not necessarily. The level of consciousness depends on the type of sedation used. While some methods may make you drowsy or even lead to a light sleep, others will keep you awake but deeply relaxed.

  • Most patients feel slightly drowsy or groggy immediately after the procedure. It's recommended to have someone drive you home post-treatment.

  • Side effects are rare and usually minimal, such as dry mouth or minor amnesia regarding the procedure. Your dentist will discuss potential side effects specific to the sedation method chosen.

Two Decades, Unwavering Trust

My wife and I have been with Hillside Dental for nearly 20 years. From dental cleaning to root canals and almost all dental needs. Dr. Rosenberg and his staff are highly skilled, knowledgeable and very focused on their patients. We are moving to California soon but I would be tempted to come back for our dental needs.

Exceptional Emergency Care

I had a really bad tooth emergency over this past weekend. Since it was a Sunday, the office was closed. I texted the Dr.'s emergency line, and he came into the office with an assistant ready to go and relieve my pain. I can't tell you enough what a relief it was to get this taken care of. I'll always recommend Dr. Rosenberg and his staff.

Gentle and Caring Treatment

This is the best dental experience I have had in my LIFE. I had a lot of dental work done as a little boy, including a headgear, extractions, fillings, and braces. As a result, I am traumatized. However, the staff was extremely gentle and aware of my dental office anxiety. THANK YOU to the entire staff for taking such good care of me! I highly recommend!
