Sedation Dentistry

Do you find it hard to sit still in the dental chair? Do you struggle with dental fears or suffer from neck or back pain? If so, we invite you to learn more about sedation dentistry and how it can change your overall dental experience! Our team at Pure Smiles can discuss your dental needs and help determine the best type of sedation for you. We want to help you feel completely worry-free while getting the dental care that you deserve. 

Oral Sedation

With oral sedation, you will be given a sedation pill to take before your procedure begins. By the time you sit in the dental chair, you will feel completely relaxed. With this sedation option, you will feel so at ease that it may even cause you to fall asleep during your procedure. Oral sedation is easy to use and very effective in helping you feel calm and comfortable throughout your entire dental appointment. 

IV Sedation

Typically suggested for longer dental treatments, our trained team members will administer the IV sedation during your dental visit. The sedation will take effect immediately. One of the benefits of IV sedation is the ability for your dentist to increase or decrease the amount of sedation given throughout your treatment. IV sedation allows you to sit back and relax while working towards a healthier smile. Since the effects of IV sedation take a while to wear away, it is highly recommended that you are driven home by someone else after your appointment.

Nitrous Sedation

Nitrous sedation is given through a mask that is placed over your nose. Working within minutes, you’ll be amazed how fast you feel relaxed. You will stay aware of the sounds and smells around you, all while being anxiety-free as your dentist works on your smile. Once the mask is removed, the sedation will quickly begin to fade, meaning that you can get on with your day shortly after your appointment!
