Nitrous Oxide Sedation

Nitrous oxide sedation, commonly referred to as “laughing gas”, is a safe and effective sedative used in sedation dentistry. The sedative is not meant to put you to sleep, so you can expect to hear and respond to any requests, comments or questions from your dentist. The effects of the sedative will last for as long as you are wearing the mask that delivers the agent, and for a short time after removing the mask.

Oral Sedation

Oral sedation dentistry is a procedure used by dentist that involves the administration of oral sedative drugs, typically to help a patient suffering from anxiety or fear of dental work. Oral sedation is an alternative to other types of sedation dentistry, such as IV sedation or nitrous oxide sedation.

IV Sedation

Everyone needs to visit the dentist, but the task is easier said than done for many. When the fear and anxiety is too much to handle, sedation dentistry should be considered. IV sedation dentistry is one of the more popular options available. It is administered intravenously, allowing the sedatives to be quickly introduced to the patient’s system, and adjusted just as quickly on an as needed basis.
