Dr. Appelin completed training in sedation in 2009 during his hospital based residency in Florida. On his sucessful completion of additional California coursework in early 2014, he attained an Oral Conscious Sedation Permit for California.
Since 2015, Dr. Appelin has used Adult Conscious Sedation in the office to help even the most fearful patients get through a root canal or surgical procedure. For more information on sedation click here.
With comprehensive training, proper permits, and many sucessful cases already completed; Dr. Appelin puts patient's minds at ease knowing that their specific surgery, or root canal therapy can be completed in a safe, relaxed and comfortable setting.
"With the length of treatment required for Root Canal Therapy we find Oral Conscious Sedation a better fit for patients than Nitrous Oxide or IV Sedation." Stated Dr. Appelin when asked why he prefers oral sedation to other methods.
