Sedation Options
There are different options available to patients when it comes to anesthesia. In the practice, Dr. Perkins is able to offer both laughing gas for simple procedures and IV sedation for more complex treatments. Sedation can be used for everything including a typical cleaning, partials, periodontics and more. Patients who may be very anxious or fearful often choose IV sedation. Dr. Perkins will assist each person in choosing the best type of sedation for them. Our practice has many patients who prefer not to be awake for their dental procedures. Dr. Perkins works with a board certified Doctor in Anesthesiology, and monitors the well being of patients while Dr. Perkins is performing the necessary dental procedures. He sees this as the best option for patients, and one that sets Chris E. Perkins, DDS and Associates apart from many other dental practices in the area.
