Sedation Dentistry
in Duncanville, Texas
For some people, a trip to the dentist is a very stressful time. Dental phobia and fear of pain are not uncommon in dental patients.
Different Types of Sedation
For people who need help relaxing in the dentist chair, sedation dentistry is available.
- Oral sedation: Taken the night before or the day of the appointment, oral sedatives relax but are not for pain relief.
- IV sedation: This effective, safe method, normally monitored by an anesthesiologist, causes little or no discomfort and often little or no memory of the procedure.
- Nitrous oxide: “Laughing gas” is inhaled through a mask to relax, with a local anesthetic used to eliminate pain.
- General anesthesia: These drugs cause temporary loss of consciousness and are used for more complex treatments.
