Buffalo Sedation Dentistry
Once you've experienced sedation dentistry at Westermeier Martin Dental Care, you'll probably 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 snoozing. You'll wake up refreshed, with little or no memory of what was accomplished. Because you are completely comfortable, Dr. Westermeier and Dr. Martin can do years of dental treatment in one or two visits. Dr. Westermeier and Dr. Martin can give people with very busy schedules 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: "Thank you. Sedation dentistry changed my life."
How Does Sedation Dentistry Work?
You are given a small pill to take an hour prior to your dental appointment. Your companion will accompany you to the office. By the time you arrive, you will be very drowsy.
When you arrive in our office, you will be escorted into the comfort room, covered with a warm, cozy blanket and placed on a monitor to watch your vital signs. After you are comfortable, Dr. Westermeier, Dr. Martin, and the experienced clinical team at Westermeier Martin Dental Care will take care of your dental needs.
When your sedation dentistry treatment is completed, your companion will return you home to finish your comfortable, relaxing day.
Facts About Sedation Dentistry
It Really Works! You really can relax through your dental appointment
It Is Safe! You take a small pill prior to treatment, no intravenous tubes or needles.
You will have little or no memory of the experience. You probably won't remember any sounds or smells.
You will snooze for up to five to six hours after taking the pill. The time you are snoozing will vary depending on your needed treatment.
Complex dental treatments often require six to eight appointments to complete. Many of our sedation dentistry procedures can be done in as little as one! All while you relax.
People who have difficulty getting numb will find that sedation dentistry eliminates this problem.
Sedation dentistry is a safe and effective way to reduce the fatigue of extended dental treatment requiring long visits.
