Oral Conscious Sedation

For this type of dental sedation, we’ll give you a pill that needs to be taken at a set time before your treatment begins. Once the effects kick in, you may start to feel drowsy, but you’ll still be awake. You’ll simply be so relaxed that you won’t mind what’s going on around you. You’ll be able to say goodbye to your anxieties so that you can stay calm during your appointment. If you doze off at any point during your treatment, we’ll be able to wake you up with a gentle shake.

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

If you’re only mildly anxious about your dental care, nitrous oxide sedation may be the solution that you’re looking for. You’ll breathe in the sedative throughout your appointment to remain relaxed. One advantage of nitrous oxide sedation is that it can be adjusted throughout your appointment as needed. Another is the fact that nitrous oxide wears off quickly, which means you can return to your normal routine once your dental appointment is complete.
