Sedation Dentistry in South Florida
General, Cosmetic & Reconstructive Dentistry
At Plantation Dental and Anesthesia Associates, we provide conservative, adult-centered dental care from common procedures to more complex, combined treatments in a futuristic facility. Whether experiencing dental anxiety, having medical considerations, or simply need to be asleep during dental treatment, our approach is designed around your individual needs and well-being.
We aim to:
- Consolidate multiple treatments into a single visit.
- Preserve your natural teeth whenever feasible—we strive to save your teeth, not replace your teeth if possible.
Board-Certified, Hospital-Trained Experts in Sedation Dentistry
As a Florida state-certified anesthesia facility, our practice is led by hospital-trained, board-certified doctors skilled in all levels of IV sedation to general anesthesia.
Our patients benefit from a stress-free experience with little to no memory of treatment—most common for patients with:
- Dental phobia or anxiety
- Previous traumatic dental experiences
- Generalized anxiety, panic, or extreme nervousness
- Fear of needles
- Sensitive gag reflex or sensitive teeth
- Low pain tolerance or poor response to local anesthetics
- Difficulty getting numb
- Medical conditions or complex health histories
- Cognitive impairments or involuntary movements (e.g., Parkinson’s, dementia)
- Jaw pain, limited opening, or TMJ issues
- Difficulty sitting still or sensory overload from dental stimuli (sounds, smells, sensations)
I.V. Sedation is also advantageous for patients needing:
- Full-mouth rehabilitation, reconstructive dentistry, or multiple procedures
- Time-consuming oral surgery procedures
- Multiple procedures in one visit due to time constraints
- Root canal (endodontic) therapy
- Long chair times or repeated injections
