\"\"<\/a>If you\u2019ve ever scrolled through our services page<\/a>, you\u2019ve probably noticed that Oakton Dentistry by Design<\/a> offers sedation dentistry<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Sedation dentistry<\/strong> allows patients who have avoided the dentist because of dental anxiety or other issues\u2014like neck or back pain, a sensitive gag reflex, or because local anesthetics don\u2019t have an effect on them\u2014the chance to get the care they need without fear or stress.<\/p>\n

What you may not know about us, though, is that we also offer sleep dentistry<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

How Does Sleep Dentistry Work?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sleep dentistry<\/strong> is actually part of sedation dentistry, but its focus is more specific. Sleep dentistry<\/strong> is for patients who don\u2019t just want to relax during their appointment\u2014they want to sleep through it completely.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how it works.<\/p>\n

On the day you come into our Oakton<\/strong> office for your visit with Dr. Khalil or Dr. Giordano<\/a>, we\u2019ll have a board-certified anesthesiologist on hand to carefully control your sedation levels and monitor your comfort and safety. Once you\u2019re sound asleep, all you have to do is rest easy in our dental chair as we take care of your smile.<\/p>\n

Afterwards, you\u2019ll wake up feeling relaxed and with no memory of your appointment at all. In fact, it may even feel like your appointment lasted only a matter of minutes. But as great as this feeling might be, nothing will compare to the satisfaction of knowing your smile is healthier and stronger than before you came in.<\/p>\n
