Options include:

1. Local Anesthesia - This is always the simplest option for sedation dentistry in Cache County, UT. It involves injecting a numbing medication around the area to be treated. This is often combined with nitrous oxide.
2. Nitrous Oxide - Also known as “laughing gas,” this can be a supplement to a local anesthetic. Since the patient remembers most of the procedure, it does not work well for children who are dental phobic or cannot sit still through dental treatment. This process is best used to reduce minor anxiety.
3. Oral Sedation - This can be a great option for a moderately nervous child when the planned treatment is expected to last a little longer. The child is given a syrup to drink which has a sedative effect to relax patients for the procedure. The medication often takes 20 minutes to work, so parents will need to take an active role in administering it to the child.
4. General Anesthesia - When children need a lot of dental treatment, or their fear is too great to accomplish treatment in the dental chair, general anesthesia is a comfortable and safe option for sedation dentistry in Cache County. This level of care can be rendered with the help of an anesthesiologist.

I am so impressed with Dr. Jake. I have an autistic and epileptic 4 year old. She has been absolutely terrified of the dentist until I decided to give Wasatch a try. She saw Dr. Jake and he was absolutely amazing! He did some little magic tricks and slowly moved into her big bubble, then won her heart and trust! She was willing to let him look at her teeth without having to hold her down like her previous dentist. Yesterday we went back for her sedation appointment. She was happy to go back. Everything went incredibly well and he was very thorough. In fact, one of her teeth that concerned me was so infected it had to be pulled. Her last dentist told me the tooth was fine. She was sad we left and just wanted to go see the dentist all day!!
