Sleep Dentistry – Transforming Patients Dental Experiences
Sedation dentistry can be a life-changing option for patients who experience dental anxiety and, as a result, may worry about going to the dentist or even avoid seeking much-needed dental treatment. Dental sedatives induce a relaxed state before or at the beginning of a patient’s appointment so that he or she experiences little or no unease about the procedure. Some sedatives achieve a relatively mild effect, while others achieve a more pronounced effect similar to sleeping through the procedure (hence the term sleep dentistry). Sedation dentistry is compatible with a number of dental treatments, including many cosmetic, restorative, and general dentistry procedures.
If you suffer from dental anxiety, don’t wait another minute in securing the dental care you deserve. Contact our office today to learn more about how we can help reach your treatment goals with dental sedatives.

Our Sedation Dentistry Services

Oral conscious sedation dentistry – delivers sedation in pill form, which the patient takes approximately one hour before her or her appointment. Oral conscious sedation achieves a moderate sedative effect.
Inhalation sedation dentistry – delivers sedation by inhalation (inhaled nitrous oxide gas, or “laughing gas”). Inhalation sedation achieves a mild sedative effect.
Intramuscular sedation dentistry
– delivers sedation by injection into the muscle tissue. Intramuscular sedation achieves a moderate to strong sedative effect.
Intravenous (IV) sedation dentistry
– delivers sedation by injection into the bloodstream. IV sedation achieves a strong sedative effect.
