Sedation Dentistry Treatments

Do you find that going to the dentist is often more stressful than it needs to be? Are you hypersensitive to contact with your mouth, including the smallest touch? If so, sedation dentistry may be for you.

For more information about sedation dentistry, see below:

– For a fast-acting sedative, intravenous sedation applied through an injection is almost instantaneous. It is administered directly into the bloodstream .
– If you would like a sedative that is effective, yet will not leave you drowsy afterward, you may consider laughing gas. Laughing gas is a combination of oxygen and nitrous oxide. It is safe and used in many dental offices.
– For the strongest type of sedation, general anesthesia can be used. General anesthesia will put a patient to sleep.
– If you prefer a pill, the dentist can give you a prescription. However, pills do take time to take effect and should be taken as prescribed by the doctor.
