Contact Our Dentist - Orlando, FL

Some patients need extra assistance feeling calm and relaxed during dental visits, so we provide intravenous sedation dentistry for those with a moderate dental fear, who have special needs, or have a sensitive gag reflex or sensitive teeth. IV sedation is also beneficial if our dentists, Drs. Lawrence or Kyle, need to perform complicated dental procedures or if multiple treatments are necessary. IV sedation is administered intravenously and lets us provide a more controlled and precise level of sedation. Patients are able to hear and respond to instructions, but “wake” with little to no memory of the procedure.

Very extreme cases of dental anxiety, gag reflex, complex dental procedures, or special needs conditions, like autism or Alzheimer’s, may require the use of general anesthesia. Our dentist office is fully equipped with an anesthesia/surgery suite and recovery room with audio and video surveillance. Dr. Lawrence is certified to administer general anesthesia and monitor patients throughout the procedure. Unlike IV sedation, general anesthesia is breathed through the nose, putting the patient into a deep and relaxing sleep, and they wake and recover with no recollection of the treatment.
