Berkeley Sedation Dentistry

If you come in for sedation dentistry, we will go over your options for sedation and pick the option right for you. Dr. Tapaltsyan is among only a handful Bay Area dentists with an Oral Conscious Sedation Certificate from the California Dental Board with extensive training on the subject.

Once you’re at the chosen level of sedation, your dentist will begin your procedure and you’ll return to full consciousness with the whole thing behind you. Sedation dentistry allows you to experience dental work without seeing, hearing or feeling whatever is happening inside your mouth. At higher levels of sedation, you can even walk out of the office with no memory whatsoever of the procedure.

Another perk of sedation dentistry is that it allows procedures that would normally take several visits, to be performed all at once. Even something that might take hours will only feel like it lasts a matter of minutes when you’re under dental sedation. For a trusted sedation dentist in Berkeley, contact Berkeley Hills Dentistry.
