Dental anxiety can prevent many from seeking necessary care, but at Cedarwood Dental, sleep and sedation dentistry provide a solution, allowing patients to undergo treatments in a relaxed, stress-free state. Our sedation options include nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and oral conscious sedation, which help patients feel calm or even sleep through their procedures, ensuring a more comfortable experience.
What is Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation dentistry involves using medications to help patients relax during dental procedures. It is ideal for those who experience anxiety, have sensitive teeth, or need extensive dental work. Cedarwood Dental offers multiple sedation options, including:
- Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas): A safe, mild sedative that helps you relax while staying conscious.
- Oral Conscious Sedation: A pill taken before your appointment, combined with nitrous oxide, providing deeper relaxation without losing consciousness.
Who Benefits from Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation dentistry can benefit various patients, including those who:
- Need multiple procedures within a single appointment.
- Are unable to sit still for long periods.
- Have overly sensitive teeth.
- Experience dental phobia or anxiety.
- Have a strong gag reflex.
- Prefer to be relaxed throughout dental procedures.
- Suffer from pain in their back, neck, or shoulders.
- Would prefer not to remember their dental procedure (amnesia through sedation).
