Additionally, patients with disabilities, movement disorders, or a phobia of drills and needles can benefit from dental sedation.

We understand that it can be difficult for some patients to visit the dentist after a past negative experience. Our professional dental team aims to create a welcoming environment where every patient, regardless of age, feels comfortable. At all of our dental office locations, we strive to provide high-quality, professional treatments as well as positive dental experiences.

Common Methods of Dental Sedation

  • Nitrous Oxide: The most common type of sedation is nitrous oxide. Nitrous oxide is also known as laughing gas because it can make patients feel giggly and happy. It is administered by a mask placed over the nose and mouth. Patients also often feel euphoric and comfortable under nitrous oxide.

Our team will discuss your sedation options with you during a consultation to help you decide the best treatment method for your specific needs.
