We offer safe, effective sedation to help you feel calm and comfortable during your treatment. Many people are so fearful of visiting the dentist that they delay or avoid care altogether. At Cary Implant and General Dentistry, we have a lot of compassion for individuals who struggle with dental anxiety, and we don’t want it to get in the way of a healthy smile. That’s why we offer safe, effective sedation options designed to help you feel calm and comfortable during your treatment. Whether you need a routine procedure or more complex care, sedation dentistry can make your experience significantly more relaxed. Understanding Dental Anxiety Dental anxiety can stem from many sources, including past experiences, fear of pain, sensitivity to sounds or smells, or anxiety about complex procedures. You’re not alone, and you’re not judged. Our team takes your concerns seriously and works with you to create a treatment plan that prioritizes both your comfort and your oral health. Sedation Options at Cary Implant and General Dentistry We offer multiple sedation solutions based on your needs, comfort level, and the type of procedure you’re having. Oral Sedation for Mild to Moderate Anxiety For patients who feel nervous but don’t require deep sedation, the doctor can prescribe anti-anxiety medication for you to take before your appointment. You will remain awake, but deeply relaxed during the procedure. It’s an easy, non-invasive way to help you feel calmer. IV Sedation for Complex Procedures For patients undergoing more involved treatments, such as wisdom teeth removal or other surgical procedures, we offer IV sedation.

Discover how our patient-first, empathetic approach builds trust and delivers truly personalized care. At Cary Implant and General Dentistry, we believe dentistry is about more than teeth—it's about people. That’s why our approach is rooted in listening, empathy and personalized care. We know that when patients feel truly heard and understood, they’re more comfortable, confident and motivated to prioritize their oral health. Beyond the Chair: Building Trust Through Empathy Many patients walk into a dental office feeling nervous, unsure or even judged—especially if they haven’t been in for a while. At Cary IGD, we’ve created an environment that replaces fear with understanding. From your first call to your final appointment, you’ll experience a team that listens first and treats second. Drs. Jeff Casebier, Joseph Pesicek and Ivy Shen lead with compassion, taking the time to understand your concerns, goals and even your past dental experiences. Whether you’re here for a routine exam or a full-mouth rehabilitation, our goal is the same: to build a partnership grounded in trust and respect. Customized Treatment for Every Smile No two mouths are the same—and no two treatment plans should be either. We tailor every procedure, from dental implants and same-day crowns to cosmetic veneers and sedation options, to fit your unique needs, lifestyle and comfort level. Our team is especially skilled in full-mouth esthetic rehabilitation, single esthetic implants and complex restorative planning. But what sets us apart isn’t just our advanced training—it’s how we listen to understand what’s right for you, not just what’s possible. A Judgment-Free Zone We know some patients feel embarrassed about their... --- - Published: 2025-06-17 - Modified: 2026-03-09 - URL: https://www.caryimplantdentistry.com/from-one-tooth-to-a-full-smile-understanding-your-dental-implant-options/ - Categories: Dental Implants Explore your dental implant options at Cary Implant and General Dentistry—from single implants to full-arch restorations. We offer personalized, judgment-free care to help you regain a confident, healthy smile. Losing a tooth—or several—can impact more than just your smile. It can affect your ability to chew, speak and feel confident. At Cary Implant and General Dentistry, we understand how important it is to restore your smile in a way that feels natural, secure and long-lasting. That’s why we specialize in a wide range of dental implant options tailored to your specific needs. Whether you’re missing one tooth or several, our team is here to walk you through your options with empathy, honesty and a commitment to personalized care. Single-Tooth Implants: Simple, Effective and Natural-Looking If you're missing just one tooth, a single-tooth implant is often the best solution. This involves placing a small titanium post into your jawbone that acts as a new root. Once healed, we attach a custom-made crown that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. The result? A secure, natural-looking tooth that helps preserve bone health and keeps nearby teeth from shifting. This is a great option for patients looking for a long-term, low-maintenance solution that looks and feels just like the real thing. Implant-Retained Bridges and Dentures: The Middle Ground If you’re missing multiple teeth but not ready for a full-arch solution, implant-retained bridges or dentures may be ideal. Unlike traditional removable dentures, these are anchored to dental implants for added security and stability. You’ll enjoy: Improved chewing function Fewer dietary restrictions Less risk of shifting or slipping Better preservation of bone and facial structure These options offer a strong, reliable alternative for those seeking... --- - Published: 2025-06-17 - Modified: 2026-03-09 - URL: https://www.caryimplantdentistry.com/what-to-expect-from-same-day-crowns-at-cary-implant-and-general-dentistry/ - Categories: Uncategorized Learn how Cary Implant and General Dentistry uses CEREC technology to provide custom, same-day dental crowns—restoring your smile in just one visit without messy impressions or return appointments. If you’ve ever needed a dental crown, you may remember the hassle: messy impressions, temporary crowns, multiple visits and weeks of waiting. At Cary Implant and General Dentistry, we believe your time is just as important as your smile. That’s why we offer same-day dental crowns using state-of-the-art CEREC technology—a fast, comfortable and highly precise solution for restoring damaged teeth in just one visit. What Are Same-Day Crowns? Same-day crowns are custom-made ceramic restorations that cover and protect damaged, decayed or worn teeth. Unlike traditional crowns that require two or more visits and a temporary crown, same-day crowns are created and placed in a single appointment. Using CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics), our team designs, mills, and places your crown while you relax in the dental chair—no goopy impressions, no second visit and no waiting weeks for a lab. How the Process Works Here’s what you can expect during your same-day crown appointment at our Cary, NC, office: Digital Scanning: We begin with a quick, comfortable 3D scan of your mouth using an intraoral scanner—no trays or molds needed. Digital Design: Using advanced software, your crown is custom-designed to match your bite, shape and natural tooth color. In-House Milling: The design is sent to our CEREC milling machine, which crafts your crown from a durable ceramic block in about 15–20 minutes. Fitting and Bonding: Once milled, your dentist will ensure a perfect fit and bond the crown in place—no temporary needed. The entire visit typically lasts about two... --- --- ## Services --- ## Doctors ---
