Routine dental visits are the biggest step in preventative care to avoid any major dental work down the road. However, only about 50% of adults report that they visit the dentist every six months as recommended by the ADA. Unfortunately, the major dental work that these people often end up needing could have been avoided had they taken the proper preventative measures.<\/p>\r\n<p><br \/><em><strong>Why do people avoid the dentist?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\r\n<p><br \/>There are many reasons people avoid the dentist. Among some of the top reasons include cost, the belief that their oral health is already good, time, and anxieties or fears of dental work.<\/p>\r\n<p><br \/><em><strong>Is dental anxiety or fear causing you to put off dental care?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\r\n<p><br \/>If dental anxiety or fear has stopped you from seeing the dentist, you\u2019re not alone. It\u2019s very common for those who suffer from dental anxiety to tend to cancel their appointments. This only makes matters worse as they are then more likely to experience tooth decay or loss. Even worse, if this happens, their physical, mental, and social health also tends to decline.<\/p>\r\n<p><br \/><strong>It is our goal to put your dental anxieties and fears to rest.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Theriot Family Dental Care offers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lafayetteladentist.com\/sedation-dentist\/\">sedation dentistry<\/a>.\u00a0 This is a great way to get the dental care you need, while you are completely comfortable and relaxed. Dr. John Theriot has special training in and meets all board requirements for practicing oral conscious sedation.<\/p>\r\n<p><br \/>Oral conscious sedation preserves your natural reflexes such as coughing and allows you to retain consciousness during treatment. Most patients describe feeling completely relaxed and indifferent to discomfort. When you are done, you may not even recall the procedure.<\/p>\r\n<p><br \/><em><strong>Are you a candidate for sedation dentistry?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\r\n<p><br \/>If you experience any of these issues, you are a likely candidate:<br \/>\u2022 You have had trouble getting numb.<br \/>\u2022 You need a lot of complex dental care, and you want it done in as few visits as possible.<br \/>\u2022 You had traumatic dental experiences when you were younger and have a hard time facing the prospect of dental care now.<\/p>\r\n<p><br \/>If you\u2019re interested in improving your dental experience with sedation, please <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lafayetteladentist.com\/request-appointment\/\">get in touch<\/a>.\u00a0 We\u2019re happy to discuss the procedure with you in depth and help you achieve your smile goals.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s human nature to seek pleasure and avoid pain.
