If you’re searching for a dental practice that gives top priority to your comfort as well as your oral health, the office of Whittier Dental Group offers the best of both worlds. Our experienced dental professionals provide patient-oriented care using the latest technology, techniques and materials. We provide a comprehensive range of dental services, from routine checkups to the most advanced restorative and cosmetic treatments to sedation dentistry.

Studies estimate that as many as much as 15 percent of adults across the nation avoid seeking out the dental care they need due to fears or misconceptions about their treatment. If you suffer from significant dental anxiety or phobia, dental sedation may be right for you. Prior to prescribing sedation, we will carefully review your medical records to ensure the process will be safe for you. Dental sedation is always closely monitored by our professional team and has proven to be a highly effective method for alleviating anxiety and making patients feel more comfortable during treatment. Dental sedation can be administered in different forms, including nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral sedatives, and IV sedation (intravenous). As skilled providers of care, we’ll explain the options we provide and what type of sedation best suits your needs.

Dentistry is changing and our office is changing along with it to ensure your comfort and ease throughout every step in care. We emphasize communication and will keep you well-informed as to what to expect before, during and after your treatment. If you have anxiety about treatment and would like to learn more about dental sedation, we welcome the opportunity to address your questions and concerns.
