Sedation Dentistry
For patients who experience anxiety at the dentist, sedation dentistry is a safe and effective option to ensure they can receive the dental care or treatments they need. If you have put off dental work or avoid dental checkups or dental hygiene appointments due to fear or anxiety, speak with our team today to learn if sedation dentistry could be a good option for you.
IV Sedation Dentistry
In IV sedation, medication is delivered right into the bloodstream. IV sedation can be controlled to deliver mild sedation to deep sleep, depending on the type of procedure being performed and the patient’s needs.
Nitrous Oxide Sedation Dentistry
Nitrous oxide sedation is also often referred to as “laughing gas.” It is delivered through a mask that is placed over the nose and mouth, and it wears off very quickly after the nitrous oxide is turned off.
Oral Sedation
Oral sedation is given to patients through pills they can swallow. Our dentists can prescribe oral sedation pills and instruct you about when to take them before your appointment. For oral sedation, you will likely need someone to drive you to and from your appointment, as you may have to take it before you arrive and the effects can linger after your procedure.
