Many people feel anxious before and during dental procedures. It's normal to feel nervous or even fearful when anticipating an appointment. We understand that our patients aren't all excited about dental visits, and we have great news: you have options! You can experience dental treatment comfortably with the available sedation method listed below. Inhalation Sedation - Inhalation Sedation (Laughing Gas) is commonly used to make treatment more comfortable. The sedation is inhaled through a mask and produces a state of relaxation. Local anesthetic will be administered in conjunction with inhalation therapy to eliminate pain. Inhalation therapy is designed to make procedures easier for nervous patients and has been effective for many years. Concerns? Questions? We are happy to provide you with the options that may work best for you! We want you to feel safe and confident through every step of your dental care. Call our office today!
