We Offer Sedation Dentistry for Your Comfort

If you feel nervous, stressed, or even fearful about dental visits, sedation dentistry can provide you with options when it comes to relieving your dental anxiety and allowing you to remain relaxed for your treatment.

For most patients, our mildest form of sedation dentistry, nitrous oxide, is completely safe. Because it enters and leaves your system quickly, you don't need to worry about residual effects.

For patients needing a deeper form of sedation, we offer oral conscious sedation, which involves prescribed medication that you will take before your treatment. You will remain conscious and responsive while still being completely relaxed.
