Dental sedation services in Newport News, VA are an option for adults and children whose fear of the dentist is so strong that they avoid necessary treatment altogether. Procrastinating necessary dental treatment can produce devastating health effects beyond dental pain. Bacterial infection is a common cause of dental pain and the infected mouth can transport the infection to other areas of the body with serious (and sometimes fatal) results.
Certain conditions such as jaw soreness, neck or back problems are other reasons some choose not to seek necessary dental treatment. But these conditions and fears need not be blocks to dental treatment given dental sedation techniques that help both the mind and body relax.
Oral sedation also assists those with difficulty getting numb. There are those who require several injections for local anesthetic to take effect. This can be very intimidating for those highly uncomfortable with needles. For those people oral sedation is a good treatment option.
