Sedation dentistry
For many people, dental appointments can bring anxiety, tension, or difficulty staying comfortable. Sedation options help create a calmer experience by easing both physical and emotional strain. Each method supports a different level of relaxation, allowing you to move through treatment at a pace that feels manageable and predictable.
We explain every option clearly, review your medical history, and recommend the safest, most appropriate approach based on your needs and the treatment being planned.
Your sedation options
Oral sedation: A prescribed medication taken before your appointment to create deeper relaxation. You remain responsive but feel calm and less focused on the procedure.
General anesthesia: A fully asleep, hospital-based option recommended for certain surgical or complex cases. Care is provided with a medical anesthesia team for complete safety.
What to expect
We’ll start by learning about your health and what makes you anxious, then walk you through the plan step by step. Whether you want something light or a deeper level of sedation, we’ll explain everything clearly and keep checking in to make sure you’re comfortable.
