We can help. Oral sedation is one option for patients who feel anxious. Whether it is suitable depends on your medical history and the treatment planned, so we review it with you at your exam before recommending anything. We can also take breaks and explain each step as we go.
Costs depend on your needs and are confirmed at an in-person exam. Before any treatment begins, you receive a written plan with the fees itemized. The $199 consultation includes a clinical exam, the X-rays required for your case, and a written treatment plan.
