Laughing Gas/ Nitrous Oxide Sedation
Nitrous oxide is a fast and safe method to help patients relax during procedures. You will remain fully awake and able to follow instructions, without experiencing fear. Some patients may feel a sense of giddiness during treatment. With nitrous oxide, there is no need to organize transportation to and from the dentist, as the effects can be quickly reversed with oxygen.
Sedation through oral medication
If your fear of the dentist is so intense that you struggle to sit in the dental chair, we have a solution for you. With oral conscious sedation, you will take a sedative about an hour before your appointment to help you relax and enter a dream-like state. While you will still be awake and aware of your surroundings, most patients do not recall their appointment. The sedative's effects will dissipate quickly, leaving you feeling normal afterward. Please ensure you have a ride to and from the dentist if you opt for this method.
IV Sedation
We suggest IV sedation for severe anxiety or lengthy dental procedures. A board certified Anesthesiologist will monitor you while you are asleep, adjusting your sedation as needed using computer technology. You may feel drowsy after the procedure and will need to arrange transportation for your appointment.
