Does the thought of having your teeth cleaned make your body tense with fear? Are you more likely to endure a painful toothache rather than visit a dentist?

Conscious oral sedation dentistry can make your dental treatments comfortable, relaxing and painfree. Let us take away your dental anxiety.

Conscious sedation via nitrous oxide or oral sedatives is a great way to make dental appointments more enjoyable for someone who is apprehensive or has a fear of receiving dental treatment. Conscious sedation has the benefit of being able to take a pill instead of receiving the medicine through an IV. You will be awake, but very sleepy. The effects wear off in a few hours, and the medicine has an amnesic effect, you won’t have much recollection of your appointment!

Are There Any Side Effects? How Long Do the Effects Last?

Nitrous oxide, commonly called laughing gas, is used on patients of all ages and has very few side effects. Nitrous oxide is mixed with oxygen and inhaled through a small mask. The effects of nitrous oxide wear off almost immediately after the mask is removed.
