Oral Sedation

We offer oral sedation in Burton, Michigan, to help calm and comfort those with dental anxiety or those who may feel especially nervous about their visit. Dr. Prabha Raju may also recommend sedation services to those with more time-consuming treatments. Oral sedation is simple and easy to use, and it is often preferred over other kinds of sedation because it does not require needles, produces a comfortable amnesic effect and is affordable. It is a conscious form of sedation, meaning you will be awake during your visit.

If it is decided that oral sedation is right for you or your child, you will be given a prescription for it before your visit to us. We will give you instruction as to when you should take the sedative and it is necessary you have a friend or family member to drive you to and from your appointment.

If you are feeling anxious about your next visit to Tender Dental Care, please contact us at 810-715-3368 and ask about oral sedation. Our team will do everything possible to make your time with our dentist pleasant, and we will address any concerns you may have regarding your oral health and the services we can provide to you.
