Afraid of the Dentist? Your Monterey Sedation Dentist Can Help


If you live near Monterey and experience severe anxiety when undergoing (or even thinking about!) dental treatment, oral sedation is for you.
Conscious sedation dentistry is available in Monterey at Jeanette M. Kern, DDS. We have been providing sedation dentistry in Monterey County for years now with excellent outcomes. Whether it is called relaxation dentistry, oral conscious sedation or anxiety-free dentistry, it is completely safe and very popular for our nervous cosmetic and restorative dental clients.

Though it may sound impossible, with oral conscious sedation, dentistry patients can actually relax during dental visits. In addition, healing times for restorative, periodontal and extensive cosmetic dentistry procedures are actually shorter if the patient is sedated during treatment. Sedation dentistry is great for alleviating anxiety for our Monterey patients, and oral conscious sedation can be effective for treating or working with the following:

Teeth sensitivity;
Fear of needles;
A powerful gag reflex;
Difficulty controlling body movements;
Lengthy multi-procedure visits;
Difficulty becoming numb with traditional injections.

If you need dental work more extensive than a filling; such as a root canal, tooth implant, or crown replacement; call Jeanette M. Kern, DDS at (831) 372-8011. When you come to our office at 660 Camino Aguajito, Suite 201, in Monterey, Ca, we can give you more information about sedation dentistry.

Sedation dentistry is only one of the services we offer at Jeanette M. Kern, DDS, where your smile is our top priority!
