Your Sedation Options
Making your dental appointment painless and comfortable.
Nitrous Oxide
To begin with, we provide nitrous oxide through a nose hood and administer it throughout the entire procedure. Moreover, this gas elevates the general mood and can evoke an overall sense of well-being. Most importantly, it relieves anxiety and reduces pain during the procedure. Furthermore, you can drive yourself to and from each appointment when we use nitrous oxide.
Oral Conscious Sedation
Furthermore, for patients who need a deeper level of relaxation, we provide oral medication before treatment and then add nitrous oxide to induce a more profound state of sedation. As a result, Patients often report feeling relaxed and unconcerned about the procedure, as the medication dulls their senses. However, you will need a driver to and from the appointment when we use oral medication.
IV Sedation Option
Additionally, We typically use IV sedation for longer or more complex procedures, but we can also utilize it for simpler treatments if necessary. In fact, patients describe feeling as though they slept through the entire process, since treatments lasting hours can feel like minutes under this type of sedation. Nonetheless, patients will require a driver to and from the appointment with IV sedation.
