Sedation Dentistry - You No Longer Have to Be Afraid
Fearful patients no longer have to be afraid of the dentist. Getting the treatment you need, can be done easily and painlessly while you are totally relaxed and comfortable.

Oral sedation has many benefits that make getting your dentistry possible. Being sedated using oral medications means there are no needles. While you do not actually sleep during treatment, you will be sleepy-sedated just enough to make you totally relaxed and at ease. One of the best parts is that by the next day, most people remember little to nothing of the time they spent in the dental chair. Gone are memories of the sights, sounds, and smells of the office that is often so traumatizing.

With sedation dentistry, time seems to pass very quickly, so hours feel like minutes. It's a great option if you need a large amount of dental care completed at one time. Oral sedation enables Dr. Botts to work more efficiently and complete more treatment in fewer visits, reducing four or five appointments to just one or two.

Many dental procedures can be completed with the help of sedation dentistry, including implants, crown work, tooth removal, dentures, filling cavities, gum therapies, tooth whitening, bonding, professional hygiene visits, and even root canals! It IS possible for you to smile with confidence and chew without pain.

Here at Botts Dental Spa, our team has received top-in-the-nation training in oral sedation dentistry from DOCS Education and is equipped with the knowledge, expertise, and equipment to ensure that you have a safe, pleasant, and highly rewarding dental experience. Dr. Botts has years of experience providing high-quality care to our greatly valued patients.

After a consultation and health history review are completed, you and Dr. Botts will decide on a treatment plan that's right for you. He will select the best oral sedation medications and protocol to meet your individual needs. Sometimes a pill is given to take the night before the appointment and/or one hour prior. You will arrive, with your companion, at the office already feeling relaxed, maybe even drowsy. Once there, Dr. Botts will decide whether or not to administer more medication.

Since the purpose of oral sedation dentistry is to make you as comfortable as possible, you'll be encouraged to come to your appointment wearing loose, comfortable clothing. You'll be covered in a thick, warm blanket to relax with while you're waiting for treatment to begin. It is Dr. Botts' and our dental teams' mission to make all of our patient's dental experiences as relaxing as possible, while also enjoying the serenity of our dental spa.
