Visiting the dentist can provoke anxiety for numerous individuals. At Aiken Family Dentistry, we provide solutions to help you remain at ease and composed throughout your dental treatments. This effective medication allows for essential procedures to be performed without the typical stress or discomfort, ensuring your visit is both pleasant and manageable.
Our offerings present a variety of benefits tailored for patients with dental anxiety. You will stay awake and aware during your treatment while experiencing profound relaxation. The sedation aids in alleviating anxiety, decreasing discomfort, and can make lengthy procedures feel significantly shorter. A number of patients describe having minimal to no recollection of their visit, a distinct advantage for those struggling with intense dental fears.
Before your appointment, Dr. Allicia Lucich will prescribe a medication for you to take. It’s essential to arrange for someone to transport you to and from our office in Aiken, as the effects of the sedation may linger for several hours. During your treatment, our dedicated team will closely monitor your vital signs to ensure your safety. The sedation will induce a feeling of drowsiness and relaxation, allowing us to efficiently and comfortably carry out your dental work.
The expense of oral sedation can differ based on the type of medication used and the duration of the procedure. Aiken Family Dentistry accepts several financial options to help make your treatment accessible in Aiken.
You will take the prescribed medication prior to your arrival, feel drowsy and at ease during the treatment, and will require a ride home afterward. Most patients have limited recollection of their visit.
Aiken Family Dentistry offers safe, reliable oral sedation for patients grappling with anxiety. Our skilled team prioritizes your comfort and safety throughout every procedure in Aiken.
Oral sedation is less invasive than IV sedation, as it requires no needles or intravenous lines. It typically provides a deeper state of relaxation compared to nitrous oxide while allowing you to stay awake and aware.

This was an excellent experience! I had not had a cavity in YEARS, and I’m glad that Dr. Allicia Lucich repaired it. He was efficient and professional. I was particularly impressed by the finely tuned teamwork between Dr. Allicia Lucich and his nurse. All in all, five stars!
