Nitrous Oxide Sedation
Considered to be the mildest form of sedation available, nitrous oxide is a gas-based sedative that is gently inhaled as you undergo your treatment. The gas is inhaled through a nasal mask that is worn while you relax in the dental chair. Once administered, you should feel calm and euphoric, making it easy to complete a wide variety of dental treatments. After the mask comes off, the sedative’s effects gently fade away within just a few minutes and you can continue your day without interruption!
Oral Conscious Sedation
With oral conscious sedation, you can finally get the important care you need. This effective solution will help you feel relaxed and comfortable throughout your visit with us. What’s more, you’ll have little to no memory of your procedure afterward. In fact, for patients who have struggled with dental anxiety all their lives, oral conscious sedation can show them what an anxiety-free visit to the dentist looks like.
If you’d like to use oral conscious sedation during your next visit, Dr. Glynn will review your medical history to determine if it’s safe for you. If it is, we’ll write you a prescription for a commonly prescribed sedative. On the day of your procedure, you’ll take your pill one hour before your appointment. Be sure that a friend or family member is available to drive you to and from your appointment because you should not drive while under the pill’s effects.
IV Sedation
IV sedation is recommended for patients with severe dental anxiety or dental phobia. In addition, if several dental procedures are required to restore oral health, deep IV sedation allows a patient to remain comfortable and sedated while all of the procedures are completed during the course of one appointment. Furthermore, this type of sedation may be helpful for patients with a sensitive gag reflex, or those with neuromuscular conditions or special needs that prevent them from remaining comfortably seated in the dentist’s chair for a long period of time.
If you’ve been putting off important care because of anxiety, don’t delay any longer.
