Your Sedation Dental Options

Making your dental appointment painless and comfortable.

Nitrous Oxide

The nitrous oxide is administered through a nose hood throughout the entire procedure. Nitrous oxide elevates the general mood and can evoke an overall sense of well-being. Most importantly, it relieves anxiety and reduces pain during the procedure. You can drive yourself to and from each appointment when using nitrous oxide.

Oral Conscious Sedation

Oral medication is provided prior to treatment, and then nitrous oxide is added to induce a more profound state of sedation. You are still “awake,” but your senses are dulled. This means that most patients cannot remember the pain, smells, or noises associated with the dental procedure. You will need a driver to and from the appointment when oral medication is used.

IV Sedation

Patients who have previously experienced IV sedation report that the sedation made them sleep through the entire procedure. When you are sedated, a treatment taking several hours will feel like minutes. Dentists typically use this type of sedation for longer procedures or more complicated oral surgeries, but they can also use it for simple fillings or even cleanings. You will need to arrange for a driver to take you to and from the appointment when you receive IV sedation.
