Children can undergo gentle sedation dentistry if administered by a licensed and trained dentist. If you have specific questions about your child’s age and sedation dentistry, please give us a call.
Many children feel anxious about dental procedures. Some children have specific healthcare or behavioral needs that make sedation dentistry a suitable option.
At Lone Star Smiles for Kids, Dr. Brant Boling and his team are always focused on your child’s safety and comfort. As a parent and pediatric dentist, he’ll always bring the utmost care and consideration to your child’s needs.
Sedation dentistry allows children to receive the dental treatment they need while they’re calm and comfortable. Every member of the Lone Star Smiles for Kids team is trained in pediatric sedation protocols.
Benefits of Sedation Dentistry
Sedation dentistry is a tool that permits dental teams to focus on creating positive experiences for children. This allows the staff at Lone Star Smiles for Kids to:
- Create a calm environment where the child can relax and let the team work, reducing treatment time
- Create positive memories that set a solid foundation for lifelong oral hygiene
- Care for children with special needs in a way that makes them comfortable
- Finish treatment with fewer appointments
- Do their work without causing the child pain or anxiety, particularly during longer or more complex procedures
We offer multiple sedation options and will work with you to figure out which is best for your child. If you have a child who requires dental treatment, please don't hesitate to contact us. We’d love to talk through this with you.
