Relax With Sedation Tailored to You

Dental sedation isn’t just for major procedures—it’s for anyone who wants to feel more at ease in the dental chair. Sedation dentistry can help patients with high anxiety, strong gag reflexes, sensitive teeth, or difficulty sitting for long periods.

  • Laughing Gas (Nitrous Oxide) – This light sedation is inhaled through a small mask and provides quick, calming effects. It’s ideal for children and adults alike, and the effects wear off soon after treatment—no downtime needed.
  • Oral Sedation – Oral sedation is a prescription medication taken before your appointment. It allows for a deeper level of relaxation, helping you feel sleepy but responsive. Many patients report little to no memory of the procedure.
  • IV Sedation – Delivered directly into the bloodstream, IV sedation offers the most profound calming effect while keeping you conscious. This is especially helpful for lengthy procedures or high-anxiety patients, and it’s monitored closely for safety.

These methods make everything from fillings and cleanings to dental implants, extractions, and full-mouth reconstruction far less intimidating. With sedation, your visit becomes easier, faster, and more pleasant than you imagined.
