Sedation Treatment

What is Sedation?

While there are various sedation methods available, they all share a common goal of promoting relaxation, which is crucial as almost 60% of people experience dental anxiety to some extent. If visiting the dentist induces anxiety, considering sedation may be a beneficial option. The three primary sedation routes include nitrous oxide, IV sedation, and oral sedation, all of which have proven highly effective for patients, whether it's a routine cleaning or a dental procedure. When anxiety interferes with your ability to relax, our aim is to enhance your dental experience through the use of sedation.

The Benefits of Sedation:

1 Put an End to Dental Visit Dread.

2 Embrace Relaxation Throughout Your Dental Visit.

3 Instantly Soothe Your Nerves and Fears.

4 Prevent Anxiety, Heart, or Blood Pressure Issues During Dental Procedures.

5 Save Time by Avoiding Delays Caused by Discomfort During Dental Work.

Learn About Sedation Options:

1

Identify the Optimal Relaxation Plan for Your Needs.

Before proceeding with any form of sedation, we will conduct a thorough consultation to determine the most suitable option for your specific requirements. Factors like your health and stress levels, as well as the nature of the dental procedure, will all be considered when choosing the best approach. Regardless of the type of sedation required, you will be thoroughly relaxed before any dental procedure takes place.

2

Nitrous Oxide

Commonly referred to as "laughing gas," nitrous oxide provides a rapid solution that offers the comfort of sedation without prolonged drowsiness. At the conclusion of the procedure, oxygen is delivered through the mask to swiftly eliminate the gas. Nitrous oxide effectively alleviates anxiety while allowing you to remain conscious. This sedation method is the only one that leaves you capable of driving after your procedure.

3

Oral Sedation

Oral sedation offers different levels of sedation: minimal and moderate. The choice of the appropriate pill is based on your specific needs. Typically, sedative pills can take up to an hour to take full effect. Minimal oral sedatives induce drowsiness while keeping you awake. In contrast, moderate sedatives might lead to you falling asleep, with no recollection of the procedure details.

4

IV Sedation

IV sedation, administered directly through a vein, results in rapid relaxation. This method allows us to initiate the procedure more swiftly and adjust your sedation levels as required. IV sedation is recognized for its safety and effectiveness since it is continuously monitored and controlled. While under sedation, our team will maintain constant monitoring of your heart rate, blood pressure, and blood oxygen levels. You can have peace of mind, knowing that your health and well-being are our top priorities.
