HOSPITAL SEDATION AND DENTISTRY
Having your child in the hospital is a painful and trying experience. Our dentists and team at Carson City Pediatric Dentistry and Dayton Pediatric Dentistry make sure that your child has the proper care, no matter the procedure. Visit us at our Carson City or Dayton, Nevada, locations, or call 775-461-3800 to talk to our dentists about hospital sedation and dental care.
Our dentists may recommend hospital dentistry when a patient’s oral health needs require the use of general anesthesia to receive treatment without complication. We work closely with hospital staff and specialists to ensure patients are fully comfortable and every precaution is taken.
There are several benefits to hospital dentistry, including:
- All needed treatments can be provided in just one visit
- A controlled setting in which to provide safe and effective treatments
- A completely comfortable treatment, as the patient is asleep throughout the entire procedure
Children who have extreme difficulty receiving care in the dental office and individuals with special needs are excellent candidates for hospital dentistry. We may also recommend hospital dentistry for individuals with pre-existing medical conditions that make a hospital the best facility in which to receive treatment. Recommendations for treatments and hospital dentistry are based on our findings during exams and on patients’ experiences and behavior while in our office. Hospital dentistry is recommended only when necessary, and you as the parent will be provided with all possible options first.
