Sedation Dentistry

The approach to managing anxiety in dental care varies based on its intensity. Those experiencing mild anxiety might find relief through nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas. Oral sedation is an effective option for those dealing with moderate anxiety. In cases of severe dental anxiety, we provide IV sedation to ensure a more comfortable experience. Our goal is to cater to individual needs, ensuring a stress-free and relaxed dental visit for everyone.

Absolutely, before your scheduled appointment, we conduct a thorough consultation to assess your medical history. This helps us determine the most suitable sedation method for your specific needs. If necessary, we’ll also coordinate with your primary care physician for further insights. Throughout the procedure, we maintain a vigilant watch over your vital signs, ensuring your safety and comfort at all times. Your well-being remains our top priority throughout the entire process.

Like any procedure involving sedation, there can be mild side effects associated with sedation dentistry. These typically include temporary conditions such as dry mouth, headaches, or a feeling of grogginess. Following the sedation, it’s essential for the patient to arrange for someone to drive them home. Additionally, it’s advisable to refrain from engaging in strenuous activities for the subsequent 24 hours as a precautionary measure. These steps ensure a safe and smooth recovery post-treatment.
