General Information

We will take every measure to ensure that your procedure is in no way uncomfortable or painful. If treatment is needed, we will inject a small amount of anesthesia to gently numb a concentrated area of your mouth. For most patients, the feeling of numbness usually subsides after 2-3 hours.

For those patients who are very anxious about this type of treatment then we are able to offer sedation. Midazolam is used in either oral form or intravenously to relax these patients. This can be discussed at the consultation appointment.

Yes, for most treatments, we recommend that patients return to the office 6 months after the procedure was finished. This appointment is made at the completion of treatment.

Occasionaly there can be some pain following treatment. We will warn you if this is likely and recommend appropriate pain killers to take care of this. In most situations though there is mild or no discomfort following treatment.
