 atients who have opted to combine One-Pill Sedation with treatment have been tremendously pleased with the results. In their own words...
“I was surprised a pill could make this procedure so pleasant. I don’t even remember sitting down in the chair! I don’t see any reason to go through a procedure without it.”
“This was truly amazing. It took all the edge off. I had no discomfort and no recollection of the procedure. Any anxious feelings I had vanished.”
Dr. Singer is a member of the Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation, or DOCS. DOCS provides education to dentists who care for the large population of people who avoid dental care.
Now, using a small pill, dental care can be completed while patients are totally relaxed and comfortable. Oral sedation has been highly praised for its excellent safety record, quick onset and recovery. While patients are sedated, all the care they need is often concluded in one or two visits. Unlike IV sedation, there are no needles to dread or long recovery.
 Dr. Singer states, “I have always been sensitive to our patients with high fear and apprehension. I can now offer all patients an even more comfortable experience. For lengthy procedures, One-Pill Sedation adds to one’s comfort and leaves them feeling refreshed afterwards.”
Oral Sedation is ideal for adults with:
- Lengthy procedures who desire a relaxed state
- Fear or very sensitive teeth
- Past traumatic dentalexperiences
- Difficulty getting numb
- A bad gag reflex
- Limited time to completedental care
- Complex dental problems
- A dread of needles and shots
- Discomfort associated withnoises, smells and tastes
