Sedation Dentistry
If you suffer from dental phobia, you’re not alone—many of our patients have put off going to the dentist for months, years, or even decades because of the anxiety caused by a dental visit. Dental fear can allow minor tooth problems to become major oral health issues. But there is hope! Our dentists are experienced and gentle in helping anxious patients and also offer sedation. We can ensure you get the care you need without causing unnecessary stress or anxiety.
Also known as “laughing gas”, nitrous oxide is a powerful gas that, when mixed with oxygen and administered via a face mask, blocks pain and reduces anxiety. Commonly used in many aspects of dentistry to keep you more comfortable, nitrous oxide is an excellent way to eliminate feelings of anxiety associated with dental procedures. It’s worth mentioning, it also helps patients with a severe gag reflex.
