Sedation & supportive care
A calmer visit starts with a plan.
We support anxious, very young, special-needs, and complex-care patients with thoughtful pacing and several comfort options.
Comfort and safety first
What is sedation dentistry?
Sedation can make it possible to complete dental care safely and effectively when a child is too anxious, too young, or needs extensive treatment. The right option depends on the patient and the planned care.
Nitrous oxide
Often called laughing gas, nitrous oxide may help reduce anxiety, discomfort, and gag reflex while a patient stays awake and responsive.
Moderate sedation
Oral medication selected for a child’s age, weight, and treatment needs may help them become relaxed and drowsy while remaining conscious.
Deep / IV sedation
A dental anesthesiologist monitors the patient while they sleep through treatment. This option may help patients who cannot tolerate other approaches.
