Greetings from Dr. Julian H. Zhitnitsky!

Tell Me More about Sedation Dentistry

- It really works! You really can snooze through your dental appointment.
- It is safe. You take a small pill prior to treatment, no intravenous tubes or needles.
- You will have little or no memory of the experience. You won't remember any sounds or smells.
- You can snooze for up to five to six hours after taking the pill. The time you are snoozing will vary depending on your needed treatment.
- Complex dental treatments that often require six to eight appointments can be done in as little as one - all while you snooze.
- People who have difficulty getting numb have no problem when relaxed and snoozing.
- Sedation dentistry is a safe way to reduce the fatigue of extended dental treatment requiring long visits.

How does sedation dentistry work?

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 we will take care of your dental needs.

When your treatment is completed your companion will return you home to finish your comfortable, relaxing day.

If you have questions regarding sedation dentistry, please call our office at (818)785-8388 or email us at drz at dentistsherwood.com today.

Best Regards,
Dr. Julian H. Zhitnitsky
