Sedation dentistry at Comfort Dental Care and Orthodontics is extremely safe, and because we’re the only provider in the area with the credentials necessary to perform sleep dentistry, you know you’re in good hands. We utilize three types of sedation dentistry: laughing gas, IV sedation and oral sedation. We always carefully evaluate every patient’s medical history beforehand, which is why you can rest assured that sedation dentistry is a safe procedure.
Our team at Comfort Dental Care and Orthodontics ensures that every patient feels at ease from the moment they walk through our doors. Laughing gas is a popular choice for its dual role as a pain reliever and a calming agent. It is administered through a mask placed over the nose, allowing patients to breathe in the gas and experience a gentle, euphoric sensation.
This method is particularly beneficial for children and adults who may feel anxious about dental procedures, as it helps them remain calm and cooperative throughout the treatment.
Do you have any fear or anxiety about going to the dentist? Ideal for those patients who wish to combine a variety of intensive procedures into one visit, IV conscious sedation dentistry using an IV applied by an anesthesiologist is often the best choice in such cases.
During these procedures, patients may go back and forth between a conscious and unconscious state, and hours can start to feel like minutes. This method does have some lasting side effects following your procedure and patients will need an escort to return home.
After your dental procedure is complete, we will turn off the laughing gas and let you breathe normally. This will flush any remaining gas out from out of your system, and you will become more alert and normal.
Dental insurance may cover certain types of sedation dentistry. Check with your provider to see if it is covered by your plan. If you do not have dental insurance, Comfort Dental Care and Orthodontics offers convenient financing options through CareCredit® and OrthoBanc® to help make sedation dentistry and related procedures more affordable.
