AT BEST SMILES SOUTH RICHMOND, WE’LL HELP YOU REDUCE DENTAL ANXIETY WITH ORAL SEDATION

A sedation dentist at Best Smiles South Richmond understands that dental anxiety is real, and sedation dentistry can help prevent it. We offer sedation dentistry services at our South Side Office for patients who are nervous about their upcoming dental treatments.

HOW DOES SEDATION DENTISTRY WORK?

Sedation dentistry uses medication or nitrous oxide (laughing gas) to relax a patient during a dental procedure. This type of treatment reduces pain and fear, making it easier for the dentist to perform the necessary procedures. In some cases, oral medications, such as Valium or Halcion, may be administered before the appointment, while nitrous oxide is available during the procedure.

TYPES OF SEDATION DENTAL CARE

Best Smiles South Richmond in South Side Office offers several types of sedation based on your individual needs and fears:

  • With oral conscious sedation, you arrive at our office relaxed, but awake and able to answer questions.
  • In order to administer Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas), a mask is placed over your nose during treatment.
  • During treatment, IV Sedation delivers drugs directly into the bloodstream for maximum relaxation.

When your dentist recommends general anesthesia for more intensive treatments, such as wisdom teeth extraction, you will be completely asleep throughout the procedure, ensuring your safety and comfort.

BENEFITS OF SEDATION DENTISTRY

From reducing anxiety to minimizing pain and discomfort, sedative dentistry at Best Smiles South Richmond in South Side Office offers a variety of benefits. It is our goal to ensure that each patient feels secure and comfortable during their dental appointment by creating a customized treatment plan. As a result of this anxiolytic approach, patients have a more pleasant dental experience, increasing their overall satisfaction.
