As you probably know, there’s a bit more to smile care than dental hygiene. Sometimes patients need more complex treatments that require a little more time and effort in the dental chair. Does the thought of this make you nervous or bring on your dental anxiety? Relax and know that your general dentist in Chicago has everything you need to help you get the highest quality, advanced dental care available today in total comfort.

At North Michigan Avenue Dental Group, we have a wonderfully talented and highly skilled team of dental hygienists. They are all certified to safely and effectively administer local anesthesia when necessary.

We also have another soothing option that works to help nervous patients relax at the dentist. Oral sedation is an easy way to say goodbye to your dental-related anxiety. If you’re fine with swallowing pills, we can prescribe a sedative medication that you will take prior to coming to the office for your appointment. You feel calm, comfortable, and in good hands. You might feel sleepy or lightheaded, and you should have someone accompany you to your treatment so they can help you get home.
