Oral Medications for Anxiety
Oral sedatives are a valuable tool in periodontic care to help patients feel calm and relaxed during various procedures. These medications, typically in the form of pills or liquids, are administered by the periodontist before the appointment. Oral sedatives induce a state of deep relaxation, easing anxiety and reducing discomfort. This allows patients to undergo periodontal treatments with greater ease and comfort while maintaining full consciousness and cooperation. Oral sedation is an excellent option for patients with dental anxiety or those undergoing complex periodontal procedures.
