Sedation Dentistry

Dental phobia is characterized by fear and anxiety and causes millions of people to avoid going to the dentist, often leading to serious dental problems and conditions. Sedation dentistry is a technique we use at Vassey Dental Partners in Peachtree City, GA to ease dental anxiety and overcome your fear of the dentist.

We offer several dental sedation options for patients including: Oral Sedation, Inhalation (Nitrous Oxide) Sedative and Intravenous (IV) Sedation. Sedation dentistry must be practiced under an experienced and knowledgeable staff to ensure the safety of the patient.

Sedation dentistry is also called “sleep dentistry”, but the name is misleading because the patient actually remains “awake” and conscious throughout the procedure. Dental sedation works by relaxing the nerves that cause anxiety. Depending on the individual patient and the prescribed treatment, our Peachtree City dentist will select an appropriate dental sedation. Children who are nervous or afraid of dental procedures may be administered nitrous oxide, making them more relaxed and cooperative during the procedure.

Dental sedation is safe, fast and effective. Our doctors can often perform more dental work during a procedure when a patient undergoes sedation dentistry, saving the patient time and money from additional visits.

Don’t avoid the dentist because of fear and anxiety. Contact us and schedule your appointment to find out if you are a candidate for sedation dentistry.

Step 1

Please contact our team if you would like to set up your initial appointment. Our New Patient Coordinator will guide you through what to expect for your first visit to include a full set of X-rays, a gum assessment, and a comprehensive exam with one of our doctors. She will speak with you about your concerns and match you with the best provider to accommodate your needs and ensure you have the best dental experience.

Step 2

Determine a plan that works for you - Whether it is preventative care or cosmetic, our team will help you lay out the best path for you. After the initial exam, our doctors will walk you through your x-rays and intra-oral photos of your teeth, so that you can understand the current state of your oral health. In conjunction with your primary concern, we will walk through a few different treatment options, so that we can restore you to the best oral health.

Take Action. During your first treatment at Vassey Dental Partners, you will be prepared from start to finish. We take the time to answer any treatment questions, utilize a wealth of resources to make you comfortable in the chair, and prepare you for the estimated out of pocket costs prior to treatment. If you have dental anxiety, we will go over several options that will help you have the most comfortable dental experience as possible. Options include nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral sedation, and IV sedation.

Step 4

Follow Up & Long Term Care. Our goal is to take care of any necessary treatment and then to have you on scheduled recall visits to have your teeth cleaned. At this visit, we will monitor your periodontal health, complete periodic exams and annual xrays, so that we can diagnose conservative treatment.

Fantastic first time visit. Friendly, Professional and caring for details. Never had a dentist ever do work up on jawline, gums, bone, and explain it to me in a way I could understand. The place is easy to find and it's very big and well staffed.

Dr Michelle Konwick is the best! She makes it her priority to ensure that you never feel nervous about the dentist. She goes far above and beyond to make sure that any tooth issue is addressed and toothaches that you go into her office with, stay with her at her office. She is so pleasant and positive with her patients and her staff. All of the dentists are great at Vassey and they always followed up with you the evening of your visit to check on you. All the staff at Vassey are wonderful.

Fabulous practice! I have to add, my son chipped his tooth, he’s still at a fabulous pediatric dentist whom we love. They, however, don’t see patients for chips on Fridays. Even though my son isn’t a current patient, my husband and I are patients, they were able to squeeze him in the next day so he didn’t have to deal with it all weekend. Amazing customer service! They genuinely care about their patients and their families!
