Sedation dentistry uses medication to help patients relax during their dental treatment. This can ease anxiety and make treatment more comfortable. There are several types of sedation dentistry.
If you are having a major or complex procedure (such as dental implant placement), you may be more likely to benefit from IV or oral sedation. If you are anxious about your upcoming procedure, you could benefit from nitrous oxide or oral sedation, both of which can make you feel very relaxed. Talk to your dental team about which type of sedation will be best for you.

Many people avoid dentists because they suffer from dental anxiety. One of the most common types of dental anxiety is fear of pain. Sedation dentistry can make that fear disappear and make dental treatments relaxing and comfortable. Sedation dentistry allows patients to receive their dental treatment safely, with sedation options designed to relax them, ease their anxiety, and even eliminate any pain associated with their procedure.
