Sedation Dentistry

Being nervous about a dental appointment is totally normal. But for some people, their fears keep them from seeking regular dental care which can lead to serious dental problems, pain,and other health consequences. Sedation Dentistry is a simple, safe, alternative that will put you in a relaxed state and allow you to get the care that you need.

Sedation Dentistry uses oral sedatives to help you relax and can be used in conjunction with nitrous oxide. You will need someone to drive you to and from the office visit.

• We may give you a mild sedative to take the night before your appointment.
• You must avoid eating the morning of your procedure
• When you arrive, we will provide oral sedatives appropriate for the length and extensiveness of the procedure.
• You will be partially awake and breathing on your own during the procedure
• Do not drive for 24 hours
