Sedation Can Help You Feel at Ease
When you need a little extra support, we offer sedation options to put you at ease. You can choose from:
- Nitrous Oxide - This gentle inhaled sedative works quickly to take the edge off during treatment. You'll stay awake and aware of what's happening. The calming effects fade away within minutes.
- Oral Sedation - If you're dealing with moderate to high anxiety, you can take a prescribed medication before your appointment. You'll feel much calmer throughout the entire visit.
We'll have an honest conversation about your medical history and what feels right for you. If you opt for oral sedation, you'll need to arrange for a ride home.
