Relax and Smile
If your child feels anxious about visiting the dentist, you’re not alone, and there are solutions. As Knoxville pediatric sedation dentists, we offer safe, effective options to help your child feel calm and at ease during their appointment. From simple cleanings to more complex procedures, sedation dentistry can make each visit a more relaxed and positive experience.
Sedation may be a great fit for children who:
- NExperience dental anxiety or fear
- NNeed longer or more involved treatments
- NHave extra-sensitive teeth or a low pain threshold
- NHave a strong gag reflex
- NStruggle to sit still for extended periods
Relaxing care for every child
Every child is unique, and we’re here to make sure they feel safe and calm. As your Knoxville pediatric sedation dentist, Dr. Mallard and our team offer sedation options to help kids — including those with special needs — have smooth, stress-free visits. We offer both hospital and in-office sedation to ensure we can meet every child’s needs.
Ask Away!
Is sedation dentistry safe?
Will my child feel any pain with sedation dentistry?
Is sedation dentistry right for every child?
We’ll take a look at your child’s needs and medical history to see if sedation is a good fit for them.
What to expect with sedation dentistry
Here’s how we make your family’s visit easy and stress-free with sedation:
- NWe begin with a thorough and friendly exam to determine the best way to keep your child comfortable and at ease.
- NTogether, we’ll review our sedation options and choose the one that best meets your child’s needs.
- NOn the day of the procedure, your child will receive the selected form of sedation to help ensure a calm and smooth experience.
- NThroughout the entire visit, our team will carefully monitor your child to ensure their safety and comfort at every moment.
When it’s all done, you’ll wake up slowly, with your dental needs taken care of and no recollection of the procedure at all.
