Oral Sedation

“Nothing against you doc, but I don’t like dentists...”
"Nothing against you doc, but I don't like dentists"

This one of Dr Uchida’s favorite lines that he frequently hears from new patients.

For many Americans going to the dentist is a frightful event, even though dentistry has changed so much in the past years. A visit to the dentist can now be relaxing and fun.

Unfortunately, this is not enough for the approximately 145 million people who void the dentist due to fear. Is this you? Dr Uchida and his caring team have completed special training that allows them to treat patients while they are safely sedated.

Using a small pill, people can now have their dental care accomplished while they're totally relaxed and absolutely comfortable. Extensive procedures seem to go by faster and sometimes people don’t even remember it the next day. Not remembering their dental treatment is a big plus for some people. Oral Sedation is one of the most effective techniques we have, ever, incorporated into our office.

We have successfully treated many patients with dental anxiety and are looking forward to asking you questions about your experiences.
