Sedation Dentistry (Sleep Dentistry)
The latest in dentistry for people who have fear, complex dental needs or limited time for multiple visits. Relax for up to 8 hours while care is done and you will have little or no memory of the visit.
For many people going to the dentist is a frightful event, even though dentistry has changed so much in the past few years. A visit to the dentist can now be relaxing and fun, so anxious patients do not fear!
Dr. McCormick has completed Cardiac Life Support and other special training that allows him to treat these fearful people while they are safely sedated. With a small pill called triazolam people can now have their dental care accomplished while they are totally relaxed and absolutely comfortable. Dr. McCormick has always been very sensitive to patients with high fear and apprehension, now he can offer a safe, fear free and comfortable experience. So many people who are avoiding care due to fear can now look forward to their visits to the dentist to get the care they need with this safe and wonderful technique of sedation.
Dr. McCormick has completed all continueing education courses and continues to be very active in sedation dentistry. He continues to study new medications and techniques available so procedures can be done as accurately and pain free as possible. Dr. McCormick was one of the first dentists in Madison to offer Sedation Dentistry and has done over 500 cases successfully in the past 9 years.
With all the advances in dentistry to make the job faster, more efficient, and safer, we are so pleased to be able to bridge the gap between technology and comfort with sedation dentistry.
