Sedation dentistry is common for patients who are getting extensive treatments, meaning surgeries or other complex procedures, which lie outside of the realm of basic checkups and cleanings.
I am unusually tense about my appointments. However, from the moment I checked in I relaxed. The staff was welcoming and assuring, and helped me to relax completely. Dr. Hofmann is superb. He is by far the best dentist and dental surgeon I have ever ever experienced.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words! We’re so glad our team helped create a welcoming and comforting experience. We appreciate you sharing your feedback!
I cannot thank this clinic enough for their amazing care. They completely accommodated my individual needs by letting him wait in the hallway where he had more room for his feet and space to pace. Instead of forcing him into a tiny exam room, the dentist came out to the hallway to check his mouth. It made the entire visit so much easier for him. Fantastic service!
Response from the owner:Thanks so much for your kind words! We're grateful for the opportunity to provide compassionate, individualized care and appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Wishing you all the best!
Great experience! The staff went above and beyond to make my individual comfortable. They let him wait in the hallway so he could pace instead of staying in the crowded waiting room. The dentist even examined him right there. Highly recommend this accommodating team! Fantastic service!

When you go to the dentist for your routine dental cleaning, the last thing you expect to hear is that you need extensive dental treatment. Several factors contribute to the need for major dental work. As you age, other health factors may be harming your oral health. Whatever the reason, you may feel anxious about having major work done to your mouth, and that is understandable.
Here at The Dental Anesthesia Center in St. Louis, we’ve been working in the sedation dentistry field for over 30 years. For patients who require extensive treatment plans in St. Louis, sedation dentistry may be a great option.
What Are Some Extensive Treatments or Procedures?
Many dental treatments can be classified as extensive or major. Generally, major dental procedures refer to more extensive services; some of these include:
Many people avoid or delay going to the dentist because they have dental anxiety. They may fear needles, drills, or the dental setting in general. However, sedation can be a wonderful tool for patients who fear going to the dentist. For invasive treatments, we highly recommend sedation of some sort. These treatments or procedures often take a long time and typically require the patient to be as still as possible throughout the process.
Sedation and sleep dentistry are becoming more common as patients who suffer from extreme anxiety or other disabilities seek proper dental treatment. It is even more common for patients who are getting extensive treatments, meaning surgeries or other complex procedures, which lie outside of the realm of basic checkups and cleanings.
