This site exists because the hardest part of sedation dentistry is finding out who actually offers it. Practices differ and the published ranges are wide, so a patient who rings round blind spends weeks learning what one page can answer.
What we do
We match patients who need sedation with sedation-trained dental practices in Louisville and Jefferson County, at no charge. Every practice we introduce is independently owned, licensed in Kentucky, and responsible for its own clinical care.
What we do not do
We do not practise dentistry, diagnose, treat, or present fees as ours. Every figure on this site is a published range from the sources cited on the page it appears on, and any real fee comes from the practice in writing.
How the figures are sourced
Clinical statements - what each sedation type does, who it suits, monitoring, timings and the medicines used - come from published clinical guidance. Cost ranges come from published patient cost guides. Procedure codes come from the American Dental Association's CDT code set.
Frequently asked questions
Who do I complain to about dental care?
The practice, and the Kentucky Board of Dentistry for licensing matters. We are not part of the clinical relationship.
Do you charge patients?
No. Patients pay nothing for the introduction.
