Yuma Sleep Dentistry

Sleep dentistry is common term used for oral sedation. Our dentists are certified to provide this technique and we are a member of the Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation.

Oral sedation involves taking a pill prior to your dental appointment and is very successful in relieving anxiety. After taking the medication Triazolam, you will feel sleepy. You will not be able to remember very much about the dental appointment. The effects typically last two to four hours and you will need to get a ride home from someone after the appointment.

This form of sedation dentistry is very safe and effective in helping fearful patients. You are not unconscious and there is little to no effect on your vital signs. As an added safety measure your pulse and breathing will be monitored throughout the dental appointment.
