Sedation Dentistry
Once you've experienced sedation dentistry with Dr Agapis, you'll
never be afraid to go to the dentist again.
You'll be sedated just enough to be unaware of the treatment, as if you were
relaxing. You'll wake up refreshed, with little or no memory of what was
accomplished.
Because you are completely comfortable, we can do years of dental treatment in
one or two visits. We can replace crowns or dentures, restore sore gums to good
health, whiten yellow or stained teeth, fix a chipped tooth, and more. People
with very busy schedules can get the dental care they need, easily and quickly.
Imagine being able to smile with confidence and chew your food without pain. No
wonder so many patients say: "Sedation dentistry changed my life."
