Sedation Dentistry
Nitrous Oxide
We offer nitrous oxide sedation, also known as laughing gas, to ensure a calm and comfortable experience during your dental procedures. This safe, fast-acting option provides mild relaxation and anxiety relief, allowing you to remain fully alert while experiencing minimal discomfort. Unlike other sedation methods, nitrous oxide wears off quickly, so you won’t need a driver and can return to your daily activities immediately after your appointment, feeling relaxed and stress-free.
Oral Sedation
For patients with dental anxiety, oral sedation provides a comfortable and effective solution to help you feel relaxed and at ease. Simply take a prescribed sedative before your appointment, and you’ll experience a calm, stress-free visit. While you’ll remain awake and responsive, the sedation reduces discomfort and anxiety, ensuring a smooth, anxiety-free procedure from start to finish. Because the sedative can take some time to wear off, you’ll need to arrange for a driver to take you home safely after your appointment.
IV Sedation
For more extensive dental procedures or patients with significant anxiety, we offer IV sedation to ensure complete comfort and relaxation. Administered by a trained professional, IV sedation provides fast-acting, deep relaxation, allowing you to remain pain-free while still being able to respond to instructions. It’s a safe and effective option for managing even the most complex treatments. After the procedure, you may feel drowsy or a bit disoriented, and because the effects can linger for a short period, you will need to arrange for a driver to take you home. We’ll ensure you have a smooth recovery and are fully informed about any post-treatment care.
