We have several options for sedation, the lowest level being nitrous oxide, laughing gas is what most people know this as. It will help for very minor procedures, maybe a cleaning or something. The next option we do offer is oral sedation where you have to take a little pill prior to your…about an hour before your procedure. It is a great option, but it also has its limitations. And so, we can always review that if you have questions about it. And then the main type of sedation we use here is IV sedation. What I allow is it allows me to control how much sedation is on board. If you need a little bit more, I can get a little bit more. If I notice that you’re a little too much, I can always reverse it, and it gives me a lot of freedom and versatility that way I make sure this is a safe procedure for you and your family.
Enjoy Worry-Free Dentistry With Sedation

Our options include:
- Laughing Gas Sedation – This fast-acting form of sedation gives you a sense of calm when you breathe it in through a mask. It doesn’t have any lingering effects. So unlike our other forms of sedation, you won’t feel groggy.
- Oral Sedative – If you feel particularly anxious about a procedure, we can prescribe a small pill for you to take before your appointment.
- IV Sedation – This is most commonly used for oral surgery procedures. It will give you a sense of calm throughout your time with us.
If you receive IV or oral sedation, you will need to arrange for a ride home after your procedure. You will likely have a lingering grogginess that limits your ability to drive.
In addition to our sedation, we also have comforting amenities like blankets and pillows. You can also listen to music or watch TV using headphones to block out the sounds around you.
