Houston Cater to Cowards Dentist

Both Dr. Frazar and Dr. Hedge are members of the Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation, which trains dentists in the effective and safe administration of conscious sedation.

Often, it starts with a traumatic childhood experience – a dentist who didn’t seem to care whether he/she hurt you or not; and ever since then, dental care has been a problem. The Novocaine doesn’t seem to work, or it wears off really fast. You’d like to take care of your teeth, but you don’t want to have a heart attack in the chair.

Here at the office of Drs. Tom Hedge and Kathy Frazar, we understand. We have had a lot of success helping people like you get the dental care you need, comfortably and efficiently. We get a tremendous feeling of satisfaction in helping you through this and getting your teeth fixed so that you aren’t embarrassed or in pain. We cater to cowards!

Catering to Cowards with Sedation Dentistry

One option is sedation dentistry. With a simple pill, you can be so totally relaxed that you probably won’t even remember your appointment.

  • We are members of DOCS (The Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation). This is an organization that trains dentists in the use of sedation dentistry for patients with dental anxiety.
  • They have established treatment protocols and safety standards that are followed all over the country.

If you don’t need sedation, there are other options available, also.

  • Nitrous oxide is a popular technique. It’s a strong relaxant, and since it’s a gas that enters your system through your breathing, it comes out of your system quickly.
  • At the end of your appointment, you can breathe oxygen for a couple of minutes, and you’re ready to drive home or go back to work with no lingering sedative effect.

Some people just need a dentist who cares and who will be gentle. We do that, too.

If you have questions, just call our Houston sedation dentists. We can set up a complimentary consultation to help you see if you feel comfortable in our office before you make any commitments.

Come for a visit! We will answer your questions and discuss what we could do to help you.
