If the thought of sitting in a dental chair makes you nervous—or downright terrified—you’re not alone. Millions of people avoid dental care due to anxiety, fear of pain, or negative past experiences. That’s where sleep dentistry comes in.
At our practice, we offer safe and effective sedation options so you can get the care you need, comfortably and without fear. Whether you need a cleaning or full-mouth restoration, you can now do it without remembering a thing.
Is Sleep Dentistry Right for You?
- You haven’t seen a dentist in years due to fear or trauma
- You need multiple or complex dental procedures
- You have a sensitive gag reflex or difficulty staying still
- You’ve had painful or negative dental experiences
- You want to “wake up” to a healthier smile
Even if you’ve put it off for decades—this is your chance to catch up on years of dental work, comfortably and safely.
Here's How it Works
Step 1: Friendly Consultation
- No pressure. No judgment. You can even stay in the front office if you're too anxious to enter the exam room.
- We’ll discuss your concerns and take gentle x-rays using a standing cone beam scanner.
Step 2: Medical Review
- Our licensed anesthesiologist will call you for a phone consult and review your medical history to ensure you’re a safe candidate for sedation.
Step 3: Your Sedation Appointment
- On your treatment day (typically scheduled on a Friday), you’ll be sedated and we’ll complete your dental work in one visit—sometimes even full-mouth treatment in under 2.5 hours.
You’ll wake up relaxed, restored, and ready to smile again.

dentist for 25 years—until now.
“I couldn’t even sit in the chair without panicking. Dr. Arias met me in the front office, no pressure. He and his anesthesiologist worked a miracle—I got everything done in one appointment. I don’t even remember it. It changed my life.”
