Sedation Dentistry in Camrose
Sedation Dentistry
Oral health is important for everyone at all ages, but for some, a dental visit requires extra support. Sedation dentistry ensures you remain calm and can be still during your appointment. Some sedation options can also cloud your memory, so you have an easier time with repeat visits. If you’re considering sedation dentistry options for yourself or a family member, contact our clinic for more information.
Nitrous Oxide Sedation Dentistry
Nitrous oxide sedation (laughing gas) is a sedation option for patients who need assistance feeling relaxed in a dental clinic setting. The nitrous oxide begins working as soon as you put the mask over your mouth and nose and wears off almost instantly once the mask is removed. This option helps patients feel calmer during treatments and other dental appointments.
Oral Sedation
Oral sedation is a prescription medication for you to take before your appointment, along with instructions on when and how to take it. By the time you arrive, the sedation should have taken effect, leaving you feeling relaxed and comfortable. We’ll remind you to arrange transportation to and from your appointment, as the sedation takes some time to wear off.
