Experience the Best Sedation Dentistry Services
If you have dental phobias, a visit to the dentist can be overwhelming. However, at Pearl Oral Surgery & Dental Implants, our dentists offer various sedation dentistry options. With these options, you can maintain a clean and healthy mouth and address any dental issues without fear.
Laughing Gas - Nitrous Oxide Sedation
Nitrous oxide is a quick and safe way to help patients relax instantly during procedures. You will stay fully conscious and able to follow instructions, but there is no need to be concerned about feeling anxious. Some patients may experience a sense of giddiness during their treatment. The great advantage of nitrous oxide is that you won't have to arrange transportation to and from the dentist, as its effects can be easily reversed with oxygen.
Oral Conscious Sedation is available.
If your fear of the dentist is severe to the point where you find it difficult to even sit in the dental chair, we have a stronger solution available. Through oral conscious sedation, you will take a sedative approximately one hour before your appointment, which will aid in relaxation and induce a dream-like state. Although you will remain conscious and aware of your surroundings, many patients do not recall their appointment afterwards. The effects of the sedation will wear off fairly quickly, and you will feel normal again. However, it is important to note that you will need to arrange transportation to and from the dentist if you choose this option.
IV Sedation
If you experience severe anxiety or require lengthy dental procedures, we highly recommend IV sedation. With this option, you will be asleep throughout the procedure and closely monitored by a certified Anesthesiologist. Advanced computer technology will be used to track your vital signs and adjust the sedation as needed. Please note that you may feel drowsy for some time after the procedure, so it is important to arrange transportation for your appointment.
