Relaxation Dentistry
Relaxation Dentistry offers anxiety-free dental procedures as the patient is in a deeply relaxed state, though fully responsive. It means something even more important: a comfortable experience - often with no recollection of the time passed. We often hear from patients who express their gratitude and delight in their first ever visit to the dentist without fear. Dr. Schmidt of Saginaw can provide a totally comfortable dental experience.
All of the amazing advances in dentistry can’t do a thing for you if you don’t go to the dentist. Dr. Schmidt realizes that there are a lot of legitimate reasons why many people stay away from the dentist. It’s been estimated that almost half of the population has some kind of dental fear, from people who feel a little uncomfortable, to those who are so terrified they can’t set foot in a dental office. Whether it’s fear or something else that’s keeping you away, today’s dentistry gives Dr. Schmidt many options for making you comfortable throughout your appointment. Relaxation dentistry uses medications to relax patients which makes for a totally comfortable dental experience.
Nitrous Oxide
Nitrous Oxide sedation is a very effective way for Dr. Schmidt to help you stay relaxed and comfortable during a dental procedure. It is a very light form of sedation, which works fast and wears off quickly.
Oral Sedation
Oral sedation is a wonderful option for patients as it allows you to be comfortably sedated through an entire dental visit using just a small pill.
