Sarcee Family Dental understands that for many patients, dental visits can be daunting and stressful, leading to avoidance of essential dental care. Our team’s top priority is your comfort and peace of mind during every visit, which is why we are pleased to offer sedation dentistry options. Tailored to ease anxieties and promote relaxation, sedation dentistry can help you receive necessary dental treatment with ease and comfort. Let Sarcee Family Dental help you receive the dental care you require so you can achieve optimal oral health.
Sedation dentistry provides anxious patients with several options to help stay calm, relaxed and comfortable during dental visits and treatments. At Sarcee Family Dental, we offer a range of sedatives and comfort techniques to help ensure that receiving dental care is as stress-free and anxiety-free as possible.
At Sarcee Family Dental, we want you to receive the oral care you need so you can attain optimal oral health. For anxious patients, who would otherwise avoid visiting the dentist, oral sedation can help. Oral sedation provides light to moderate sedation to help alleviate anxiety. It involves taking one or two prescribed pills containing sedative medication before a procedure or appointment. The sedative induces a sense of sleepiness, promoting a more relaxed state during treatment and effectively reducing stress and anxiety. The initial dose is typically taken about an hour before your dental appointment. If necessary, and recommended and approved by your dentist, an additional dose of sedative can be taken the night before the procedure to help address anxiety-related insomnia. Sarcee Family Dental is pleased to offer oral sedation to help anxious patients receive the oral care they need.
Sarcee Family Dental is dedicated to helping patients receive the oral care they need. For anxious patients, who would otherwise avoid visiting the dentist, nitrous oxide may help. Nitrous oxide, often known as “laughing gas,” is a widely used sedation method that can ease anxiety. Administered through a face mask that is placed over the nose, nitrous oxide is a combination of oxygen and nitrous oxide that induces a sense of relaxation and comfort during treatment. Once administered, nitrous oxide will make you feel happier, more relaxed and desensitized, but overall you will experience a relaxed state while still being able to respond to questions or instructions from your dentist. Patients who choose nitrous oxide can usually return to their regular activities immediately after the procedure is complete. Sarcee Family Dental is pleased to offer nitrous oxide to help anxious patients receive the oral care they need.
Sedation dentistry can help nervous and anxious patients receive essential oral care without the stress often associated with dental visits.
