Dental Sedation Vancouver WA

Sedation Dentistry Vancouver WA

Dental Care in a Relaxing Environment with Sedation Dentistry

Our team understands dental anxiety, and we want to reduce your stress. Even though the doctors work diligently to deliver painless injections, some people are naturally distressed at even the idea of a needle. If you or a loved one experiences apprehension at the mention of the word "dentist," we have a simple solution.

We dispense a small pill for you to take one hour prior to your visit. It will relax you to a point that permits you to answer questions but mostly doze through your entire treatment. This is perfect for fearful people or those who have a hectic schedule and want to obtain all their treatment in a single visit.

Breathe in Relaxation

Our second dental sedation option is a simple process. We slip a small mask over your nose and you inhale the sedative nitrous oxide combined with oxygen, also known as "laughing gas."  As you slowly breathe in and out, the medication produces a sense of relaxation. Local anesthetic will then be administered in conjunction with the nitrous oxide to eliminate pain in most cases.

Call our Vancouver, WA office at 360-573-8181 to determine how sedation dentistry can make your dental visit comfortable and relaxed.
