If you have been hiding your smile, putting up with pain, or putting off going to the dentist because you're too busy, your life is about to change! New and safe oral sedation techniques mean you can have years of dental treatments done quickly, with little or no discomfort.
Fearful dental patients can choose sedation dentistry
Once you've experienced sedation dentistry with Dr. Kesteven, you'll never be afraid to go to the dentist again.
You'll be sedated just enough to be unaware of the treatment, as if you were relaxing. You'll wake up refreshed, with little or no memory of what was accomplished.
Because you are completely comfortable, we can do years of dental treatments in one or two visits. We can replace your silver-mercury filings, whiten your smile, restore sore gums to good health, fill in gaps and spaces and enhance your smile. People with very busy schedules can get the dental care they need, easily and quickly.
Imagine being able to smile with confidence and chew your food without pain. No wonder so many patients say: "Sedation dentistry changed my life."
Sedation dentistry information
You are given a small pill to take an hour prior to your dental appointment. Your companion will accompany you to the office. By the time you arrive you will be very drowsy.
When you arrive in our office, you will be escorted into the comfort room, covered with a thick, warm blanket and placed on a monitor to watch your vital signs. After you are comfortable Dr. Kesteven and the experienced clinical team at Kesteven Dental Care Studio will take care of your dental needs.
When your treatment is completed your companion will return you home to finish your comfortable, relaxing day.
