Sedation Dentistry

Do dental appointments make you nervous? Or do you have so much dental anxiety, you keep putting off visiting the dentist? No matter your situation, our sedation dentistry can help you relax and enjoy your dental experiences with us.  Our sedation services range from nitrous oxide for children and adults to oral sedation for dental procedures. It’s important to our team at Forest Hills Family Dental that you feel at ease at your appointments so we can help you receive the dental care you need to maintain great oral health.  Depending on your level of anxiety or situation, we provide the following options:
patient wearing a nitrous oxide mask
NITROUS OXIDE
Nitrous oxide is breathed in through a mask that fits comfortably over your nose. This sedation is continuous and can be adjusted to provide relaxing effects. You may experience slight euphoria and will remain calm during your entire appointment. Once the mask is removed, the nitrous oxide will wear off quickly and leave no after effects.

ORAL SEDATION
Oral sedation is an anti-anxiety medication taken in pill form before your appointment. This sedation helps to calm your nerves and can keep you feeling relaxed for your procedure. Since this sedation is taken orally, it can be difficult to control the effects and may be combined with nitrous oxide for a comfortable dental experience.
 
At Forest Hills Family Dental, our friendly, caring and professional team makes every effort to ensure that your dental appointment will be as comfortable and pleasant as possible.
