Sedation/Comfort
Many people feel anxious before and during dental procedures. It's okay to feel nervous or even fearful when anticipating an appointment. We understand that our patients aren’t all the same, and we have great news: you have options! You can experience dental treatment in a comfortable, customized approach with several different methods of sedation.
The most common form of sedation we use is oral sedation. The most common sedation treatments in dentistry are inhalation, oral, and intravenous sedation. While making dentistry much easier for you, it is important to understand that they are not painkillers, and regular numbing medications will be used as indicated. But sedation will make every part of your treatment more enjoyable if you’re anxious.
ORAL SEDATION
Anxiety prevents up to 50% of the population from getting needed dental care. Simple oral medications taken shortly before an appointment can take the edge off, removing the barrier to a healthier you.
