Explore Your Sedation Options in Arlington, TX
We offer two main types of dental sedation, including nitrous oxide sedation and general anesthesia. Nitrous oxide sedation, or laughing gas, is a mild sedation technique that allows you to remain awake in the dental chair and feel relaxed. These local anesthetics have limited side effects and can soothe your dental fears.
General anesthesia is a little more advanced and allows you to be fully asleep during your appointment. Continue reading to learn more about both oral conscious sedation and IV sedation.
Nitrous Oxide
Nitrous oxide is often a good choice for cases of mild to moderate dental phobia. The gas is administered through a mask that fits over your nose, and many patients find that their nervous feelings dissipate quickly, replaced by sensations of relaxation and contentment.
Best of all, once our team has completed your treatment and removed the mask, you will be completely back to normal in a matter of minutes, meaning that you can go back to work, run errands, and even drive after leaving our office. This option helps you feel comfortable without compromising your ability to continue your day.
Conscious Sedation
With conscious sedation, even patients with moderate to severe dental anxiety can receive the dental care they need as simply and comfortably as possible! We will prescribe an oral medication for you to take at a predetermined time before your procedure. While you will still be awake and able to respond to commands while under the influence of conscious sedation, most patients enter such a deep state of comfort that they hardly remember anything about the treatment once it is finished. You will need a trusted friend or family member to accompany you to and from our Arlington dental office, as well as to keep an eye on you for the rest of the day following your appointment. By the next morning, you should be completely back to normal – and better yet, you will have an improved smile to feel great about.
If you are tired of feeling like a cog in a machine at a regular dental clinic, please contact our Arlington, TX, practice today to schedule an appointment with our dedicated team. We put our all into making every experience you have with us as focused, personalized, and full of high-quality attention as possible. You will be amazed by the results we can create for your oral health—and how comfortable the entire process can be with our advanced sedation options like IV sedation.
