Dr. Thomas O'Neil Certified in Intravenous (IV) Sedation Dentistry
Dr. Thomas O'Neil was recently certified in Intravenous (IV) Sedation dentistry, a highly effective form of sedation applied directly in the bloodstream.
/Dental PR News/ - December 29, 2005 - Only 1% of dentists in the United States are qualified to practice
Intravenous (IV) Sedation dentistry. This is mostly because of the specialized advance training and requirements for certification by the State Board of Dentistry. Dr. Thomas O'Neil, who treats people in Broward, Dade, and Palm Beach County, Florida, is now one of these highly qualified individuals.
By completing specialized training, extended courses, and testing in
Conscious Sedation Dentistry, Dr. O'Neil obtained a State of Florida permit for IV Sedation. He is a member of the Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation and has advanced training in Cardiac Life Support.
Dr. O'Neil is excited and proud to be able to provide his patients with the most state-of-the-art techniques and practices so that they can experience dentistry in the most comfortable and anxiety free setting possible. IV Sedation is perfect for all patients, whether you are afraid or anxious of dental visits or you want to get multiple procedures completed in one visit.
Now, dental patients in Miami and South Florida can take advantage of the revolutionary IV Sedation dentistry. Through this method of conscious sedation, patients can have the benefit of having multiple procedures performed during just one dentist office visit, instead of having to come back over and over again for different procedures.
While under IV Sedation, patients can elect to have a number of different procedures performed during their visit, such as:
· Cosmetic dentistry
· Root canals
· Dental implant surgery
· Fillings
· Periodontal treatment
· Smile makeovers
· Cleanings
· Crowns and bridges
· Orthodontic dentistry
· Extraction
IV Sedation uses the same drugs that dental patients take orally, but are more affective because of their direct application through the bloodstream. One of the largest advantages of this is that if the patient needs more sedation the dentist can administer the medicine instantaneously.
Although sedated enough to not register pain, patients can still maintain airways, protective reflexes, and can respond to stimulation or verbal commands. |
