Sedation Dentistry Techniques We Offer

We provide a number of different sedation dentistry options, including:

Laughing Gas

Laughing gas remains the most popular sedation method used across the country It is administered by a mask over the nose for the duration of your procedure. With laughing gas, you can feel relaxed and comfortable while visiting us at our Phoenix location. The effects of laughing gas wear off quickly, so you can safely drive yourself to and from your appointment.

Conscious Sedation

Conscious sedation (also known as oral conscious sedation) is a great method to help you stay relaxed during a dental procedure. You will take a pill about an hour before your procedure. This causes you to feel pleasantly relaxed before your appointment even begins. More importantly, you can feel calm and relaxed while you get the care you need. You will require a ride to and from your appointment.

IV Sedation

IV sedation is a particularly effective method of sedation, especially for longer procedures. Using IV sedation, we can add various medications to further relax you and make you feel more at ease during your procedure. Contrary to popular belief, you will not be unconscious when using IV sedation. You will be able to hear and respond to our professionals as you receive care, though you will require a ride to and from your appointment. If your anxiety keeps you out of the chair, our IV sedation will keep you calm and comfortable in it.
