Mclean VA Sedation Dentistry and Sleep Dentistry at Cascades Dental


Cascades Center for Dental Health in McLean VA offers its patients sedation and sleep dentistry treatments. Consider how nice I would be go undergo a complex dental procedure such as a root canal, extraction, or oral surgery without any anxiety or discomfort.

In fact, when your sedation dentistry treatment at Cascades Dental is complete, you will have no recollection of the experience. You will not remember how long the appointment took, you will not have felt any pain, you will not have heard any disconcerting noises, and you will hot have experienced any discomfort.

All of the unpleasant elements of going to the dentist you expect can be done away with by using sedation dentistry. Dr. Ruparelia at Cascades Dental is renowned in his field and among his patients in the McLean VA area for his skill and expertise with sedation, which is why he has been nicknamed the “sleep dentist.” Our treatments and medications are safe and effective and are particularly beneficial for patients who experience:

  • Fear or anxiety associated with going to the dentist
  • Difficulty sitting still for extended periods of time
  • Trouble getting and staying numb from anesthetics

Sedation Dentistry

With sedation dentistry, Dr. Ruparelia can perform a number of dental treatments safely and comfortably for patients who deal with anxiety related to going to the dentist. For those patients who need help getting comfortable in the dental chair, sedation dentistry offers the following benefits:

  • Little to no memory of the procedure
  • No sense of how long the appointment takes
  • No detection of smells or sounds while under sedation
  • Complete calm and relaxation during treatment – fears and anxiety are gone

Patients at Cascades Dental attest that using sedation dentistry is a simple and comfortable way to get your dental work done. And they often say they remember nothing of their visit to the dentist, and if they do have any recollection, they describe it as being as if they were in a dream.

Opting For Sedation Dentistry

Sedation dentistry is available to all of our patients for a variety of reasons. Besides being helpful for those who experience anxiety relative to dental work, sedation dentistry is helpful for those who have extensive dental work needs with only limited availability. Our especially busy patients often opt for sedation dentistry because it allows them to get their dental treatment done in as few appointments as possible.

Other reasons for which Cascades Dental offers sedation dentistry include:

  • Fear/anxiety related to dental visits
  • Negative past experiences at the dentist
  • Inability to relax during dental treatment
  • Aversions to the sounds and smells at the dentist’s office
  • Difficulty sitting still for an entire dental procedure
  • Inability to get entirely numb during dental treatment
  • Embarrassment at the state of your teeth
  • Sensitive gag reflex that results in gagging whenever the dentist puts something in your mouth
  • Especially sensitive teeth
  • Fear of needles

Sleep Dentistry

At Cascades Dental, we also offer sleep dentistry. It is actually very rare to find a dentist’s office that provides this treatment. Dr. Ruparelia has received specialized training in order to perform sleep dentistry, and Cascade Dental’s advanced facilities create the ideal conditions for sleep dentistry to be absolutely safe and effective.

A board-certified anesthesiologist administers the sedation and monitors sleep dentistry patients throughout the duration of their treatment. Patients who opt for sleep dentistry do so for many of the same reasons as those who utilize sedation dentistry. Most commonly, sleep dentistry is used for the comfort of the patient and for his or convenience should he or she need extensive dental work done.
