Dr White talking with a patient

It’s true! No one was ever born afraid of the dentist!!! Dental anxiety and fears are learned, usually at an early age and those memories stay around for life. That is, unless someone with the training and skills of Dr. Sander I. White are given the chance to intervene. Many people are afraid of the dentist. If you're afraid, you're not alone. Sedation dentistry is one of many ways that Dr. Sander White can make your experience less stressful, and he will help you to understand what approach is right for you.

Dr. White has found, through his work with hundreds of patients, that gentleness, kindness and listening carefully to your own story opens a pathway to the right customized solution, and there is a whole range of choices.

One of those choices is sedation dentistry, the medically safe techniques that provide the calm atmosphere you need.  Sedation can be lighter or deeper and Dr. White will work with you to determine the precise recipe for your success.

What is sedation dentistry?

Sedation dentistry refers to the use of medications to calm and relieve anxieties. These medications can be administered in different ways. For example, by mouth in the form of a pill or intravenously. Light sedation is usually sufficient for most people, but in certain circumstances more potent methods are required which will be discussed during your consultation with Dr. White.
