West Hollywood Dentist Office, Sunset Plaza Dental, Offers Dental Sedation Options

    WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA, March 09, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Sunset Plaza Dental, West Hollywood dental office, announces that it offers patients a variety of options for sedation during dental treatments. Sedation makes treatment possible for patients with anxiety or developmental and other disorders. Inhaled, oral and IV sedation options are available from Sunset Plaza Dental. With different levels of sedation, these options ensure that more patients are getting the treatments they need to maintain a healthy mouth.

Inhaled sedation is the mildest and fastest-acting form of sedation provided by West Hollywood sedation dentist, Dr. Poneh Ghasri. Also known as nitrous oxide or laughing gas, inhaled sedation is given to patients through a hose and mask that fits over the nose. Immediately after patients begin to inhale the sweet-smelling gas, they become more relaxed and benefit from its mild anesthetic effects. Because inhaled sedation wears off quickly once the gas flow is stopped, patients can drive home afterwards.

Oral sedation is offered in the form of pills, which patients take shortly before treatment. Sedation from pills produces relaxation and drowsiness, which continues after the procedures, which means recipients must arrange for transportation. IV sedation, which is injected in the veins, works right away and results in sedation stronger than what oral and inhaled options offer.

Patients are unlikely to recall their treatment and cannot drive for some time afterwards.
Patients can visit Dr. Poneh Ghasri for a full range of treatments. Restoration, performed through fillings, inlays and onlays, is available for damaged teeth. Cosmetic treatments include veneers, teeth whitening and complete smile makeovers. For severely damaged teeth, root canal treatment and crowns are offered. Periodontal care is available for treating early to advanced gum disease. Replacement of teeth can be performed with dentures, tooth implants and bridges, and treatments for sleep apnea and TMJ are also offered.
