Description
At ESI Dental we place patient comfort and safety at the forefront of our practice. Dr. Kilimiztoglou offers sedation dentistry techniques in an effort to help patients feel at ease throughout each appointment. Rather than simply administer sedation medication, however, Dr. K. strives to understand each patient's specific concerns so that he can address them according, and make each office visit a positive experience.

DR. JIMMY KILIMITZOGLOU: Some patients are very, very anxious about the dentist. They don’t really like coming here. Many times they’ll come in, they’ll actually drive 45 times and never come into the office because they’re so afraid. And what we like to do is we like to set up a short appointment where we can just sit down and talk, and find out what has kept them away all this time. And we can customize the sedation for them.
And basically sedation is just some medication, just pills that we crush, and we put underneath the tongue, and in a few minutes, they just coast through their dental treatment, and we can do years of dental work in one simple appointment. And when it’s done, they feel relaxed and refreshed, and they don’t remember anything. So it’s a very comfortable experience.
