What are the Different Types of Sedation?
Depending on your circumstances and procedure you might need, we offer several safe sedation options:
- Nitrous oxide (laughing gas) is a popular and mild sedative gas that is mixed with oxygen. It wears off quickly and patients do well with this sedation.
- Oral sedation is prescribed by our doctor before your treatment, so when you come in for the appointment you are calm and relaxed.
- IV sedation involves intravenous medication. This sedation works quickly and the dentist can easily control the amount of sedation to ensure comfort and relaxation. You will not be unconscious, but you may fall asleep during the procedure.
