Comforts & Sedation Dentistry
Statistics show that up to 50% of adults avoid the dentist. They worry about pain, discomfort, and lack of control. Some have had bad experiences they have yet to overcome. Dr. Hornstein understands and respects these concerns. He believes that every person deserves to feel confident and comfortable in his care. In addition to using state-of-the-art technology and training our entire team to be attentive to the needs and concerns of our patients, Dr. Hornstein offers anesthesia and sedation dentistry.
Depending on your needs, Dr. Hornstein can administer a light anesthesia with nitrous oxide or a stronger alternative with oral, oral conscious, or IV sedation. At your initial consultation, share your concerns and preferences with Dr. Hornstein. He'll help you make the best choice for your situation.
In addition to helping fearful patients, sedation dentistry also works well for people who do not respond to traditional local anesthetic; those with physical problems that cause back or neck pain in the dental chair; special needs patients; and people who need many procedures performed in a compact time frame.
