Hi, I'm a type one diabetic and terrified of going to the dentist, can I be sedated?

I will answer your questions as if you were a patient of mine.  Sedation:  I would sedate you under the condition that you bring me a note from your primary care physician stating that your kidneys are fine with no renal failure whatsoever.   This is because the sedation drugs are typically cleared through your kidney and your kidneys are two of the first organs affected in diabetic patients. Once you are sedated, you would be totally relaxed and enjoy your dental visit.  Teeth that are badly broken down to the jaw bone, would likely have to be extracted, but others would likely be able to be veneered or crowned.  I know you think this is way out of reach, but I encourage you to look into things a bit more and work on getting started on your teeth.  At 23, changing your teeth will have a huge impact on your life and career. Veneers are what I do, so follow me if you have more questions about them.Sarah Thompson, DMD
