Visiting the dentist sometimes causes anxiety and stress, not to call it fear. At Cl\u00ednica Dental Laura Fern\u00e1ndez we have provided a solution to this problem so that our patients can solve their dental problems.<\/p>

What is the difference between sedation and anesthesia?<\/strong><\/p>

When we talk about local anesthesia, we mean the temporary loss of touch and pain. Local anesthesia is applied, fundamentally, when the dentist performs fillings (fillings), periodontal treatments, surgical treatments, among others. However, sedation is used to calm or reassure a person. The most common is to use it in dental implant surgeries. Since the objectives pursued by both techniques are different, conscious sedation and local anesthesia are complementary.<\/p>

What are the procedures for conscious sedation?<\/strong><\/p>

The steps for conscious sedation may differ depending on the procedure being performed. This is what you can typically expect from a general procedure with conscious sedation:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
