How Sedation Dentistry Benefits You
Feel calm and confident during dental visits. Sedation helps ease your fears, creating a positive experience so you can comfortably receive essential dental care.
Sedation allows you to relax during treatments that take longer periods, such as dental implants or multiple procedures completed in one appointment.
Sedation works alongside local anesthesia to block pain effectively, ensuring your procedure is as comfortable as possible without unnecessary stress.
If you struggle with gag reflexes or sensitivity to dental instruments, sedation options like nitrous oxide or IV sedation provide a smoother, stress-free experience.

We Offer Two Types of Sedation Dentistry
Nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas, offers a light level of sedation.
You’ll inhale through a nose piece and immediately feel more relaxed. You’ll be awake during your procedure and will still be able to communicate with us.
Once you’re done with treatment, the gas will wear off immediately, and you’ll be able to drive home.
This form of sedation is administered through an IV. It’ll put you in a deep state of relaxation, and you might fall asleep.
We partner with a nurse anesthetist to ensure you’re comfortable and safe during your procedure.
Afterward, you’ll have no memory of the procedure, and you’ll likely feel a little groggy. Someone will need to drive you home.
