SEDATION DENTISTRY

3 types: Nitrous Oxide, Oral Sedation and IV Sedation 

We treat our patients using sedation dentistry so that they are relaxed and have no anxiety during their dental care procedures. Patients are awake during the procedure. We use this method for a variety of oral care treatments including teeth cleaning, restorative work and specialized treatments.

Sedation dentistry is ideal for patients who:

• Experience nervousness or anxiety when visiting the dentist
• Have a low pain threshold
• Struggle to become (and stay) numb from anesthetics

As per the specific medical circumstances of a patient, we offer different sedation dentistry options. Nitrous oxide sedation is used to calm a patient who suffers from anxiety during general dental treatments. It also relaxes patients undergoing a root canal or dental implants. On the other hand, IV sedation is used when oral sedation is not adequate to relieve anxiety.
