What is Sedation Dentistry? Relax and Feel Comfortable with Sedation Dentistry

Sedation dentistry uses medication to help patients relax during dental procedures. It’s ideal for those with dental anxiety, a low pain threshold, or the need for extensive dental work. At Pleasantville Smiles, we offer various levels of sedation to ensure your dental experience is as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
