  • Oakland Sleep Dentistry Explained
    • ]]>     Every medical procedure carries a certain degree of risk and those procedures that use sedation are no exception. The process used in Oakland sleep dentistry relies on placing the patient in a sedative induced sleep, or deep relaxation, so the dental procedures may be done without the patient even being aware it happened.

    Standard dental procedures such as extractions or root canals have a small degree of risk. The sleep dentistry risk that goes above these is related to the use of sedatives to achieve the necessary sleep state. Oakland sleep dentists are all specially trained and certified in the use of these sedatives.

    If you are contemplating taking advantage of Oakland sleep dentistry, be aware that all dental offices that practice sleep dentistry are required to have emergency equipment readily available with staff on hand who are fully trained to operate them. These pieces of emergency equipment include a full oxygen tank, a fully charged crash cart.

    The only person who an determine if you are a suitable candidate for Oakland sleep dentistry is you certified sleep dentist. As with any medical procedure, you should investigate all of your options before deciding if sedation dentistry is right for you.
