At Salt Creek Dental we know many people get anxious when visiting the dentist. Sedation dentistry is the solution to help you feel calm, relaxed and comfortable during your treatments. Whether you’re in for a routine cleaning or a more complex procedure our sedation options will ensure you get the care you need in a stress free environment.

What is Sedation Dentistry?

Sedation dentistry is the use of medication to help patients relax during their dental procedures. Depending on the level of sedation needed you may feel completely relaxed or slightly drowsy but in either case you’ll be comfortable and calm throughout the treatment.

Types of Sedation Dentistry

We have several sedation options to suit your comfort level:

• Nitrous Oxide: Also known as laughing gas this is a mild sedative that helps you relax while remaining awake and aware.
• Oral Sedation: A pill is taken before your appointment to help you feel calm and relaxed. You may still be awake but feel completely at ease.
• IV Sedation: For more complex procedures IV sedation provides a deeper level of relaxation allowing you to feel drowsy or even sleep through the procedure.

Benefits of Sedation Dentistry

• Anxiety Free Appointments: If you get dental anxiety sedation helps you stay calm and relaxed.
• Pain Free Treatment: Sedation often includes pain relief so you’re comfortable throughout the procedure.
• Better Care: When you’re relaxed the procedure can often be done faster and more efficiently.
