Sleep Dentistry

Dr. David Michaels – your Woodstock dentist – offers sleep dentistry for anxiety-free dental work while you sleep!

We all have a fear of something. If your fear happens to be visiting the dentist’s office, we still don’t want you to miss out on the many benefits of receiving proper oral health care. That is why we offer sleep dentistry at Woodstock Dental Centre. In addition to dentistry while you sleep, we also offer milder forms of sedation for people with less anxiety and for less severe treatments.

Woodstock Dentist and Board-Certified Anaesthesiologist at Woodstock Dental Centre

Our board-certified anaesthesiologist, Dr. Jon Lok, exercises great care in selecting candidates for sedation. Whether it’s a mild sedative, such as nitrous oxide (laughing gas), or sleep dentistry, our goal has always been to provide patients with a completely stress-free experience — and so as safely as possible.

To qualify for in-office sedation, all patients must have a current medical examination, a comprehensive review of current medications, as well as complete a thorough questionnaire and exam by Dr. Lok.

Types of Dental Sedation at your Woodstock Dentist

Depending on your age, health, and typical level of anxiety, there are varying levels of sedation available to you.

  • Mild Sedation

For those with slight anxieties in visiting the dentist, we are able to offer Nitrous Oxide Sedation , otherwise known as “laughing gas.” This type of sedation is seen as pain-free and comforting by most patients. We can also utilize freezing or numbing agents for many types of procedures.

  • Moderate Sedation

For those that prefer to be generally aware of the procedure, but are open to dozing off, we can offer a more moderate form of sedation. Due to the type of sedation, you will most likely have little memory of your visit. We can also numb or “freeze” certain areas in order to provide the utmost in comfort and a virtually pain-free experience. If you do experience discomfort, we can safely take you to a deeper level of sedation.

  • Sleep Dentistry & Deeper Sedation

Want to sleep through your appointment? Whether if it’s just for a general cleaning, wisdom teeth removal, or any type of procedure, we can offer safe, deep sedation and sleep dentistry services.

At your Woodstock dentist, we make your dental experience as comfortable, simple, and convenient as possible, starting with booking your dental appointment!
