Sleep Dentistry is one of many techniques our pediatric dentist uses to calm children for a procedure. Before applying sleep dentistry, our pediatric dentist would have first considered other calming techniques such as laughing gas. Using a general anesthesia, sleep dentistry puts your child in a deep sleep under the supervision of a Pediatric Dental Anesthesiologist. Once safely asleep, your pediatric dentist performs the required dental procedures, while the pediatric dental anesthesiologist monitors your child’s sleeping.
