Oral Conscious Sedation

Oral conscious sedation is generally recommended if you suffer from moderate dental anxiety. It is also effective should you need to undergo multiple services during a single appointment. It is administered orally as a prescribed medication that you will take before your visit. Its effects will cause you to feel relaxed and even sleepy during treatment, reducing any potential anxiety as well as dulling your senses for a more enjoyable experience.

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

For milder cases of dental anxiety, nitrous oxide can be used. Known as laughing gas, the combination of nitrous oxide and oxygen is inhaled through a mask that will be placed over your nose. Within minutes, you will begin to feel calm, allowing our team to complete our work more efficiently. One of the added benefits of nitrous oxide is that the effects dissipate just as fast as they arrive, allowing you to resume normal activity after your appointment.
