NORTHRIDGE, CA, April 27, 2013 (Press-News.org) Northridge Dental Group provide a selection of sedation methods for patients with dental phobias. The sedation method that is right for the patient depends on the procedure being performed as well as the nature and severity of their phobia. Each Northridge dentist is willing to work with patients on an individual basis to make them more comfortable during their dental procedure.
D. Ariz offers nitrous oxide sedation for patients of all ages who are fearful of dental procedures. Nitrous oxide is a gas that is inhaled through a mask. For patients who have sensitive noses, the gas can be administered through a nasal hood. This gas is a safe and effective method of relaxing the patient and numbing them, allowing the dentist to perform a variety of dental procedures. Nitrous oxide is especially effective for patients who have a low tolerance for pain or who have a sensitive gag reflex.
Another option provided by Dr. Ariz is IV sedation. This sedation, known as "twilight sedation," is ideal for patients with extreme phobias or who are undergoing more complex dental procedures such as having dental implants placed. IV sedation involves the use of sedatives that are administered intravenously, sending the patient into a state of deep relaxation. The patient will remain conscious during the procedure, but he or she will be completely relaxed and free from pain.
Dr. Arami, cosmetic dentist in Northridge, specializes in the treatment of medically compromised and phobic patients. Dr. Ariz, Northridge periodontist, works with patients who have periodontal disease, as well as who need implants or other procedures related to the gums.
The right sedation option for the patient depends on their age, level of anxiety or severity of their phobia, their age, the procedure they are undergoing, and a variety of other factors. Dr. Ariz, Northridge dental veneers specialist, and Dr. Arami, Northridge Invisalign provider, can help patients select the right sedation method for their needs. Contact Northridge Dental Group to schedule a consultation for a dental procedure and to learn more about the sedation options offered at this dental office.

Understanding Implant Dentistry
2013-04-27
Implant dentistry is the most effective and structurally sound way to replace one or more missing teeth. With dental implants, your implant dentist can not only restore strength and beauty to your smile, but help prevent jaw shrinkage and collapse as well.
When you lose a tooth, you also lose its root. Unfortunately, it is the root of your tooth that signals to your body that bone is necessary in that area of your jaw. Without these signals, your body will reabsorb the minerals around a missing tooth, untimely resulting in jaw shrinkage and a change to the structure ...
