Dental treatments can cause anxiety for many people, causing some to avoid dental care they need to maintain their oral and overall health. Sedation dentistry can give those with dental anxiety a way to relax and feel at ease while they get the dental care they need. It is also an option for those undergoing longer dental treatments or for younger patients who may have trouble sitting still for their dental care.
Compassionate Care & Relaxing Environment
At Pure Smiles Dentistry, we offer sedation for our patients who need help relaxing during their dental appointments. While we offer a comfortable atmosphere with a friendly, compassionate team, sedation is available when our patients need more than reassurance. This can help those with dental anxiety, a sensitive gag reflex, or during lengthy invasive procedures.
Nitrous Oxide
One of the most effective and safe sedation options is nitrous oxide. Referred to as “laughing gas,” nitrous oxide quickly creates a mild euphoria when breathed in during treatment. While you will remain awake and aware, you will feel relaxed and calm while breathing in the gas. Nitrous oxide is safe for most children and others who need help feeling at ease while they receive their dental care. Unlike other sedation dentistry options, nitrous oxide effects are short-term. Once you stop breathing in the gas, you will quickly regain a clear mind. You can safely drive home after your appointment, without any lingering sedation effects.
