Sedation Dentistry

If the thought of visiting the dentist makes you feel anxious or fearful, sedation dentistry can help you receive the care you need in a state of complete relaxation.

Sedation options range from minimal sedation (you are awake but relaxed) to moderate sedation (you may slur your words and not remember much of the procedure). We will recommend the appropriate level based on your needs and the procedure being performed.

Common forms of sedation used in dentistry include nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral conscious sedation, and IV sedation. Each option has distinct benefits and is suited for different levels of anxiety and procedure complexity.

With sedation dentistry, even patients with severe dental phobia can receive comprehensive care comfortably. Many patients report little to no memory of the procedure itself.
