The most common anesthesia, Novocaine, works by blocking the nerve that supplies sensation to the teeth in a specific area. You feel no pain during the procedure and are totally alert, aware, and able to function normally. The effect wears off fairly quickly with no side effects.
Please call our office at least 24 hours in advance of your appointment. We’ll work with you to help you find another date that fits your schedule.
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends visiting the dentist as soon as the first tooth appears or by the child’s first birthday. We can look for potential problems and help your child get to know us as their friend. These early visits can make your child’s experience with a dentist a positive one.
Please note that patients under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all visits. We want to meet with both of you to discuss findings and treatments and to address your questions and concerns.
