Stress-Free Visits with Dr. Paul Cantelmi
Bay View Pediatric Dentistry, under the expert guidance of Dr. Paul Cantelmi, offers sedation dentistry to ensure stress-free visits for your child. Recognizing the unique needs and concerns of young patients, Dr. Cantelmi employs various types of sedation techniques to enhance their comfort and relaxation during procedures. Nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas, is a popular choice for many children. Administered through a small mask placed over the nose, it induces a state of relaxation without the full effects of anesthesia.
Conscious sedation is another invaluable tool in Dr. Cantelmi’s arsenal, particularly for children with dental anxiety or those who struggle to sit still. This approach induces a state of deep relaxation, with some children even drifting off to sleep. Dr. Cantelmi and his team take thorough precautions, ensuring the safety and well-being of your child throughout the sedation process. By prioritizing your child’s comfort and confidence, Dr. Cantelmi ensures that every visit is a positive and empowering experience.
There are many forms of sedation to help your child through his or her appointment. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us today at (718) 836-9200.
