SEDATION DENTISTRY
DENTAL SEDATION IN BAKERSFIELD, CA
SEDATION DENTISTRY IN BAKERSFIELD
Based on past experiences, some patients have been frightened by previous dental work. If you have stopped seeking dental care because you fear your next dental experience, we can help. Avoiding treatments can lead to worse oral health, especially during dental emergencies.
When cavities, tooth decay, or gum disease is present, your oral health worsens. Many patients will put off dental care until it becomes so severe that they have no choice. Delaying care puts the patient’s dental health at risk. Ultimately, this delay leads to worse medical problems like an infection. Damage to vital organs like the heart is also a result of gum disease and inadequate oral hygiene.
Sedation dentistry is an excellent option for patients who have dental fears or an overactive gag reflex. Wanting to combine dental work into one or two visits is another reason for using sedatives. There are many forms of sedation available at our office. If you are interested in learning more about sedation dentistry, our office can guide you in the process. Call us at (661) 323-1000 to book a consultation with Dr. Dimitri Salin. Our dentist helps you decide which type of sedation is right for you.
Don’t let your past get in the way of your dental care - sedatives may be the best solution for your dental anxiety

SAFE AND COMFORTABLE DENTAL ANXIETY SOLUTION
A sedative is more than a numbing agent - we offer this service to help you remain calm and relaxed throughout your dental visit
Sedatives allow you to get your dental work done while entirely comfortable and relaxed. Here at Salin Dentistry, we use nitrous oxide, oral sedation, or IV sedation. We provide a safe and relaxed atmosphere for those with dental anxiety or dental phobia. You will not be “knocked out” but you will be conscious and responsive. While you will be sleepy and relaxed, you can still communicate your needs and wants. Someone will be with you at all times to monitor your progress throughout the visit. Sedatives leave you with little or no memory of your dental experience. This helps you avoid fearful memories from being in a dental office. Our dentist provides this standard service daily. So, there’s no need to be worried or concerned at Salin Dentistry. Our sedatives will keep you relaxed throughout the rest of the day. To keep you safe, we ask that you have someone drive you to and from our office.
WHAT IS MODERATE SEDATION?
Moderate sedation is both an anesthetic and a sedative - we help you stay calm and relieve all anxiety
Moderate sedation combines a sedative and a numbing agent (anesthetic) during a dental procedure. Our sedative dentist has many years of experience providing safe and comfortable environments for patients. To help you during dental procedures, we use sedatives to relieve fear and anxiety. It is essential to us that our patients can communicate their wants, needs, and understanding. When under sedation, you will still be able to speak.
We will be with you during your dental emergency, implant procedure, tooth extraction, or kid’s dentistry visit. Our gentle dental team monitors our patients throughout the whole visit. If you’d like to learn more about sedation dentistry and why it’s right for you - contact our dental team at (661) 323-1000.
