• Anxiety about dental treatment

• Strong gag reflex

Inhaled gas has been used for decades in dentistry to help reduce fear and anxiety, and it has proven to be a successful means of achieving anxiety reduction. Your vital signs are monitored during the appointment to ensure a fully safe and comfortable experience. Inhaled sedation is administered incrementally to achieve the most effective dose for you during your visit. Once the procedure is complete, the sedative effects wear off rapidly and allow you to resume your normal activities.

Oral sedation is the use of pharmacological means to help ease anxiety during dental treatment. You’ll take a safe medication that will relax you during your dental procedure. You’ll be somewhat groggy after your procedure, so you’ll need to arrange for transportation home.
