Our pediatric dentists are trained to treat special needs patients, including medically or physically compromised and very young children. These patients may need special aids in accomplishing their dental treatment. We offer nitrous oxide, oral conscious sedation and in some cases, general anesthesia. Pediatric anesthesiologists from Children's Hospital, Oakland, come into our office on specific days and administer general anesthesia. This is a great advantage when medically compromised or young children need extensive treatment and are unable to cooperate.
