Sedation

Experience Stress-Free Dental Visits with Sedation Dentistry

At our dental clinic, we understand that dental anxiety is a common and significant concern for many patients. The thought of a dental visit can evoke feelings of fear and unease, preventing you from receiving the essential care you need. That’s why we offer sedation dentistry—a compassionate solution designed to make your dental experience comfortable, relaxed, and stress-free.

What is Sedation Dentistry?

Sedation dentistry uses medication to help patients relax during dental procedures. It’s an excellent option for those who experience significant anxiety, have a low pain threshold, require extensive dental work, or have difficulty sitting still for extended periods. We offer various levels of sedation tailored to your individual needs:

• Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas): This is a mild sedative inhaled through a mask placed over your nose. Nitrous oxide helps you relax while remaining conscious and able to respond to the dentist. Its effects wear off quickly, allowing you to drive yourself home after the appointment.
• Oral Sedation: For a deeper level of relaxation, oral sedation involves taking a prescribed pill before your appointment. This medication makes you feel drowsy and at ease, yet still awake and responsive. Depending on the dosage, the sedation can range from minimal to moderate
• Moderate Oral Sedation combined with Nitrous Oxide: For a more enhanced moderate sedation, an oral sedative can be taken prior to nitrous sedation to give you a more enhanced conscious moderate sedation.

There are other options that you can get at one of our partner specialist dental offices:

• IV Sedation: Intravenous (IV) sedation delivers a sedative directly into your bloodstream, providing a deeper level of sedation. You will be in a semi-conscious state, deeply relaxed, and unlikely to remember much of the procedure. IV sedation requires someone to drive you home afterward.
• General Anesthesia: For the most profound level of sedation, general anesthesia renders you completely unconscious during the procedure. This option is typically reserved for extensive dental work or patients with extreme anxiety or special needs.

Complimentary Comfort Menu

To enhance your relaxation and overall experience, we offer a complimentary comfort menu that includes:

• Aromatherapy: Enjoy soothing scents to calm your senses.
• Netflix Access: Watch your favorite TV shows or movies during your visit.
• Stress Balls: Squeeze away your anxiety with a stress ball.
• Dark Glasses: Reduce the brightness of the dental lights with dark glasses.
• Blankets: Stay cozy and comfortable with a soft blanket.
