Relax...Dream...Smile...

Sedation dentistry is used to provide a relaxing and anxiety-free experience for patients too afraid to go to the dentist and receive necessary routine dental care. The term “dental phobic” is all too common and potentially compromises the health of a patient’s mouth and smile. If you fall into this category, don’t worry you are not alone.
Sedation is a process used to establish a relaxed, easy and calm state through the use of different techniques. Sedative drugs (tranquilizers, depressants, anti-anxiety medications, nitrous oxide, etc.) can be administered in a variety of ways. In the past, intravenous (IV) sedation was given by injection into the blood vessels of the hand or arm. This was mainly used to sedate a dental patient.
