Sedation Dentistry Unfortunately, many people experience fear or anxiety about visiting the dentist, which can sometimes prevent them from getting the care they need. At Stonewall Dental Associates, we offer sedation dentistry to make appointments more comfortable and relaxing for our patients.You may qualify for sedation dentistry, especially if anxiety affects how often you visit the dentist. During your next appointment, ask us about your sedation options. Dr. Mai Zamakchari and our team are trained in the safe and effective use of nitrous oxide and oral sedation. Nitrous OxideNitrous oxide, commonly called laughing gas, is a safe and gentle sedation option. It helps you feel deeply relaxed while remaining awake and responsive. The gas is delivered through a mask over your nose and takes effect almost immediately. After the procedure, we administer oxygen to minimize any lingering side effects. Nitrous oxide wears off quickly, allowing you to return to normal activities without needing a ride home. Oral SedationOral sedation involves taking a prescribed pill or liquid before your appointment. Medications like Halcion or Valium help reduce anxiety and create a calm, drowsy state. You remain alert enough to respond to questions, but feel relaxed and comfortable throughout the procedure.
