Types of Sedation Dentistry in Fleming Island, FL

Dental sedation can reduce discomfort, anxiety, and fear. With sedation dentistry, we perform extractions, implant dentistry, and more. There are three common methods of sedation:

Nitrous Oxide

We deliver nitrous oxide and oxygen through a mask or cannula placed underneath the nose. Also known as laughing gas, many patients may feel happy or giggly under nitrous oxide. Patients will also feel relaxed and will not feel anxious under nitrous oxide. 

Oral Conscious Sedation

This sedation is taken as a pill about an hour before treatment. Because it takes time for oral conscious sedation to wear off, patients will need a ride to and from their treatment. Patients may be conscious under this sedation and may feel some sensation but should not feel any pain.
