Schedule an AppointmentSedation dentistry helps patients ease anxiety around complex procedures. This anxiety can lead to skipping overall dental care, which leads to more intensive restorative procedures anyway.
Dentistry on 116 specializes in sedation dentistry to provide a calming effect to help ease our patients into a state of relaxation of body and mind. Our staff and procedures are able relieve anxiety and put our patients at ease, and into a state of relaxation for procedures.
Nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, is the most frequently used method for easing mild to moderate anxiety. Recovery is quick so you can resume your normal activities immediately.
Oral sedatives are effective and safe. You will be given a prescription pill which, taken about an hour before your appointment, will have you relaxed by the time you arrive at our office. You remain awake or very sleepy throughout the entire procedure and are able to breathe on your own, but you will feel a great sense of relaxation. It is recommended that patients who receive conscious sedation have a parent, spouse, or friend accompany them to appointments because it can take several hours for the sedative to wear off and driving may be unsafe.
