Sedation Dentistry

If you have anxiety about visiting the dentist for treatment, there are a number of sedation options available to ease your mind about undergoing treatment.

Nitrous Oxide, or laughing gas, is one of the safest forms of sedation dentistry available.  Most feel the effects within minutes and these effects are completely reversed within 5 minutes of the nitrous oxide being turned off. This allows you to resume your customary activities immediately after your appointment!

Oral sedation , also known as sleep dentistry, allows you simply to take one, small pill by mouth to drift into a complete state of serenity. Safe, economical and convenient, oral sedation delivers a deeper relaxation state than Nitrous Oxide.  Your vital signs are monitored throughout the procedure, ensuring your safety.

IV sedation is available when to patients who want to be completely "out" for dental work.  A professional dental anesthesiologists provides the deep sedation while monitoring your vital signs.
