Experience Dentistry Free from Stress and Anxiety
We offer sedation and anesthetic options to make sure you feel no pain or discomfort during your visit. Your dentist will walk you through the options and recommend the best approach based on your treatment plan, medical history, and personal preferences. In some cases, more than one type of sedation may be combined to give you full comfort and support.
Local Freezing
This is the most familiar and widely used method. We numb the area using a topical anesthetic, followed by an injection to fully block pain in that specific part of your mouth. You may feel pressure but you will not feel pain.
Sedation
With sedation, you remain fully awake but feel deeply relaxed. It is commonly paired with local freezing for a pain free and stress free experience.
The Benefits of Dental Sedation
Sedation and sleep dentistry provide useful options that help us serve patients from all walks of life. These treatments address many different challenges that some people may face. Some of the benefits of sedation dentistry include:
Overcoming Dental Anxiety
For some people, fear and worry can feel worse than the treatment itself. Dental anxiety should not prevent you from receiving the care you need. If you have mild or extreme anxiety or if fear is keeping you from seeking dental care, please let us know. We are here to help.
Make Time Fly By
For long procedures where you may need to sit with your mouth open for an extended period, sedation will keep you relaxed and comfortable.
Tailored for Your Personal Needs
Do you have a sensitive gag reflex, chronic restlessness, or restless leg syndrome? Does local freezing not work well for you? Sedation can be a great option in many cases, ensuring treatment is available for everyone.

Your consultation will include an examination of everything from your teeth, gums and soft tissues to the shape and condition of your bite. Generally, we want to see how your whole mouth looks and functions. Before we plan your treatment we want to know everything about the health and aesthetic of your smile, and most importantly, what you want to achieve so we can help you get there.
Frequently Asked Questions
Rest assured that we take the time to understand your medical history and assess whether sedation dentistry is the right option for you.
Sedation will help you feel drowsy and relaxed quickly. Some people report feeling a mild tingly sensation. You may also experience mild amnesia afterward and may not remember the procedure at all.
Most sedation options do not involve being completely asleep. Instead, they make you feel extremely relaxed, and you may not even remember the procedure once it is over.
If sedation is used during your treatment, we always recommend having a friend or family member drive you home and stay with you while you recover. It is important to allow the sedation to wear off completely and to rest before returning to your regular routine.
After sedation, we suggest you take the rest of the day off to recover. A good rule of thumb is to give yourself 24 hours before returning to your normal routine. The time it takes for the sedation to wear off will depend on the type used, but it usually takes between 2 to 8 hours.
