Maryland Sedation Dentistry and Surgical Center

Maryland Sedation Dentistry and Surgical Center is a specialized dental practice located at 60 Thomas Johnson Dr #2, Frederick, MD 21702, with a phone number of (240) 673-3283 and a website at https://www.mdsedation.com. The center is dedicated to providing a wide range of dental services with a particular emphasis on sedation dentistry, catering to patients who experience dental anxiety, have a severe gag reflex, require extensive dental work, or have special needs. The clinic offers various sedation options, including IV sedation (intravenous conscious sedation), oral sedation (pill form), and nitrous oxide ("laughing gas"). IV sedation, often referred to as "twilight sleep," is a popular choice, allowing patients to be deeply relaxed and often have little to no memory of the procedure. This is particularly beneficial for complex surgeries like full mouth dental implants (All-on-4 or All-on-6) and wisdom teeth extractions, as well as general dentistry procedures such as fillings and crowns. Oral sedation involves taking a prescribed medication before the appointment, inducing a calm and relaxed state. Nitrous oxide provides a mild sedative effect, helping patients feel more at ease during their treatment. Maryland Sedation Dentistry and Surgical Center aims to make dental care accessible and comfortable for everyone. They emphasize a judgment-free and compassionate approach, understanding that dental fear and anxiety are common. Their facility is designed to accommodate comprehensive dental care, often allowing patients to complete multiple procedures in a single, longer visit while comfortably sedated. This can include cosmetic dentistry, restorative dentistry, and even routine cleanings. They also collaborate with outside dentists, allowing other practitioners to utilize their state-of-the-art surgical center and anesthesia services for their own patients. The center's staff, including sedation specialists like Dr. Gary Adams and general dentists like Dr. EJ Stringer and Dr. Nikta Pashai, are highly trained and experienced in administering and monitoring various forms of anesthesia to ensure patient safety and comfort. They focus on using biocompatible materials and advanced techniques, such as platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) for implant procedures.
