Oral Sedation
Two Forms of Dental Sedation to Optimize Comfort
Dental Sedation is Used to Alleviate Anxiety in Patients
Here at Perfect Smiles, we’re well aware that the dentist can be a significant cause of anxiety for many. That’s why we prioritize the health and comfort of our patients over everything else.
Key Advantages to Oral Sedation
Concious Sedation
Dental anxiety affects many patients. Conscious sedation offers a safe, relaxing option that eases tension and promotes a calm, comfortable experience throughout treatment.
FDA Approved
Patients can breathe easy knowing the FDA approves all oral sedatives used in dentistry. No negative side-effects in sight.
Awake and Responsive
While amnesia is common after oral sedatives wear off, patients will remain awake and somewhat responsive during the procedure. This makes it easier for the dentist because you’ll still be able to follow instructions.
Little to No Memory of Procedure
A strong dose of oral sedatives will cause patients to forget most, if not all, of what transpired throughout their dental procedure. This is an ideal scenario for patients who are generally uncomfortable at the dentist.
Key Advantages to Nitrous Oxide
Instant Pain Relief
Nitrous oxide is fast-acting because the gas enters the bloodstream seconds after inhalation. Nitrous oxide’s pain-killing properties are powerful, protecting the patient from unpleasant sensations.
Drive Yourself Home
The effects of nitrous oxide fade almost immediately after the gas is shut off, allowing patients to regain their wakefulness and drive home.
Relieve Dental Anxiety
Even the most severe anxiety is no match for nitrous oxide. Patients can fully relax and embrace their dental procedures under nitrous oxide, making it a truly excellent sedation option for many.
