Whether you have dental anxiety or need oral surgery, sedation dentistry can make any dental treatment easy to endure. At Nautical Dental, we offer sedation dentistry options to make it relaxing and comfortable to receive your dental care. We have options available to make your dental experience pain and stress-free.

 

SLEEP SEDATION/IV SEDATION

When someone has severe dental anxiety or an invasive procedure is needed for dental health, IV sedation can be the best option. This type of sedation is administered intravenously, putting the patient in a sleep-like state during their procedure. Patients are not conscious and will not remember their dental treatment. It will be essential to discuss your health history with our doctor before determining whether this is a good option for your procedure.

 

ORAL CONSCIOUS SEDATION

For those with moderate to high levels of dental anxiety or for more lengthy procedures, oral conscious sedation may be recommended. This sedation method uses an oral medication to put you into a relaxed state before your dental treatment. You will be prescribed a medication that is ingested before your appointment. While you will be conscious during your treatment, you will be in a very relaxed state and will need someone to bring you to and from our office.

 

LAUGHING GAS

NITROUS OXIDE/LAUGHING GAS

During dental treatments, those with mild or moderate stress can benefit from Nitrous Oxide/Laughing Gas. You will feel relaxed yet aware and conscious. With nitrous oxide, you’ll experience a peaceful feeling that won’t leave you with side effects! After your treatment, you’ll be able to drive yourself and immediately resume your routine activities.

At Nautical Dental, we always strive to make our patients as comfortable and relaxed as possible when they come to us for dental treatments. With sedation dentistry, even those with severe dental anxiety can enjoy the benefits of a healthy, beautiful smile. Contact our office today to schedule an appointment.
