Dental Phobia, Anxiety and Sedation Dentistry
There are different ways of treating dental phobia and anxiety. Treatment modalities include but are not limited to inhaled sedation (“laughing gas”), IV sedation and general anesthetic. This range of child sedation dentistry options allows us to create a calm, comfortable experience for every patient.
Sedation can range from the use of laughing gas to calm a patient to general anesthetics used to put patients to sleep. Patients with dental phobia, low pain tolerance, major dental treatment (such as a root canal for kids or dental crowns for children), physical handicaps or strong gag reflexes may require sedation.
Before administering any sedative or anesthetic, we will talk to you about the process and provide pre- and post-sedation instructions.
Note: Anesthesia services are only provided by Medical or Dental Anesthesiologists.
