Sedation Dentistry
Many patients find visiting the dentist to be a stressful experience. Those who struggle with dental anxiety are more likely to avoid even regular check-ups, leaving them vulnerable to tooth decay, gum disease, and many other issues. Sedation dentistry allows patients to relax during their treatment. At Ocean View, we offer several forms of sedation treatment:
Oral Sedation
Oral sedation is an oral sedative prescription in pill form to manage anxiety. You will remain conscious during your entire procedure.
Nitrous Oxide
Nitrous Oxide sedation is a safe and effective method to manage anxiety. It requires you to breathe in a combination of nitrous oxide and oxygen through a mask. This produces a euphoric feeling and an analgesic property that lasts throughout the treatment. The effects wear off quickly, allowing you to function normally shortly after your procedure.
