What is Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation dentistry uses medication to help you relax and feel calmer during your dental care. Many patients who suffer from some degree of dental anxiety or a strong gag reflex choose to receive sedation dentistry, as it allows them to relax and feel more at ease during their dental visits. There are various forms of sedation dentistry, ranging from very light relaxation to deep sedation, depending on what is best for you.
Find Your Comfort Level
| Concern | Often a Good Fit |
|---|---|
| You feel anxious before or during appointments | Nitrous oxide sedation |
| You want to feel more relaxed during a longer visit | Oral conscious sedation |
| You have a strong gag reflex that makes treatment hard | Sedation-assisted care |
| You avoid care due to past dental experiences | Personalized sedation plan |
| You want support staying calm through multiple procedures | Coordinated sedation visits |
