Sedation Dentistry in Monterey California

Once you've experienced Dr. Bianco's painless, sedation dentistry, you'll probably never be afraid of going to the dentist again. Because you are completely comfortable, Dr. Bianco can do years of dental treatments in one or two visits. "Will I feel any pain?" No. You will feel nothing. You'll be sedated just enough to be unaware of the treatment, as if you were relaxing. "Will I be unconscious?" No. You will be in a deeply relaxed state and you will be responsive. You'll feel refreshed, with little or no memory of what was accomplished.

Dr. Bianco can erase years of neglect in a visit or two. You can whiten yellow or stained teeth, replace crowns or dentures, restore sore gums to good health, fix chipped teeth, and more.

"How long will I be relaxing?" Depending on your needs, you will be in a relaxed state from two to six hours. Now you can have a beautiful smile to show off and live free of tooth pain. No wonder so many patients say: "Thank you, Dr. Bianco. Painless sedation dentistry has changed my life!"

How It Works

We give you a small pill to take an hour prior to your dental appointment. You will need someone to drive you to the office. When you arrive, you will be very drowsy.

We will escort you into our "comfort room", cover you with a thick, warm blanket and you will be very relaxed. We will also place you on a monitor to watch your vital signs. One of our staff will be with you and will monitor your vital signs during the entire visit. In a little while, Dr. Bianco and the experienced clinical team at Richard J Bianco D.M.D. will begin your treatment.

When your dental care is finished, the friend who drove you will return you home to relax and rest.

To Reassure You
