Sedation Dentistry in Ormond Beach, FL

Nitrous oxide, sometimes called laughing gas, is breathed through a small mask. It creates a light, calm feeling while you remain awake. Its effects wear off quickly once the mask is removed.

Oral conscious sedation uses prescription medication taken before your visit to help create a deeper state of relaxation. You are still conscious and can communicate, but you may remember little of the appointment afterward.

A trusted adult must bring you to the office and drive you home.

Sedation may help patients who have dental fear, difficulty becoming numb, a strong gag reflex, trouble sitting comfortably for treatment, or a need for more extensive care. We review your health history and goals to select the right approach.

When recommended after a thorough medical review and administered by an experienced team, sedation dentistry is a safe, well-established way to make care more comfortable. We monitor you carefully throughout your appointment.
