Cleanings
Ideal for patients with dental phobia or special needs, sedation can be used for both routine cleanings and deep periodontal maintenance.

Sedation helps eliminate the anxiety often associated with root canals, turning a dreaded procedure into a tolerable one.

Restore the look and function of your teeth with little to no discomfort, even during multi-step restorative work.
