What Is Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation dentistry involves the use of medication to help patients feel at ease during dental procedures. It is beneficial for individuals who:
- Experience dental anxiety or fear
- Have a low pain threshold or sensitive teeth
- Have difficulty sitting still for long procedures
- Have a strong gag reflex
- Require multiple treatments in a single visit
Our team at Prime Dental Care customizes our sedation options based on each patient’s needs, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience.
Types of Sedation Dentistry
Sedation dentistry offers different levels of relaxation depending on the patient’s needs and the complexity of the procedure. Common options include:
- Nitrous Oxide Sedation: Also known as “laughing gas,” this mild sedative is inhaled through a mask, helping patients feel relaxed while remaining fully conscious. The effects wear off quickly, allowing patients to resume normal activities after their appointment.
- Oral Sedation: A prescribed medication taken before the appointment to induce a deeper sense of relaxation. Patients remain awake but feel significantly more at ease.
- IV Sedation: Administered directly into the bloodstream, IV sedation provides a deeper level of relaxation. Patients may have little to no memory of the procedure.
