Most people don't consider going to the dentist a pleasant experience. In fact, dental anxiety is one of the main reasons that a large number of people avoid the dentist. Avoiding the dentist can be a vicious cycle because dental problems won't go away on their own.

The New York Times reported that many dentists are now using relaxation dentistry, also known as conscious sedation, where patients have little or no memory of their dental visit.

There are critics who are against conscious sedation, however, everyone that I have spoke to that have actually experienced relaxation dentistry said that they would definitely do it again. What do you think?
