Nitrous Oxide
Nitrous oxide is a colorless and odorless gas that is inhaled through a nasal mask, allowing you to experience improved comfort almost immediately. Dental anxiety can be easily curbed with this mild form of sedation, replacing your fear and worry with feelings of calm and relaxation. Once the mask is removed following your treatment, you will begin to feel normal and can resume normal activities.
Oral Conscious Sedation
Oral conscious sedation is a pill medication that is used to alleviate stress while in the treatment chair, all while producing a calming effect that ensures optimal comfort. It is primarily used if you have moderate dental anxiety or if you require multiple dental treatments in a single appointment. You will enter a deep state of relaxation before you even sit in the chair. Since effects can take time to wear off, you can have someone escort you home to rest.
