Sedation Dentistry in New Hampshire
We understand that many patients experience anxiety or fear when it comes to dental visits. Whether it’s a routine check-up or a more complex procedure, dental anxiety is a real concern for many. That's why we proudly offer sedation dentistry as a solution to help you feel comfortable, relaxed, and stress-free during your visit.
What is Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation dentistry involves the use of medications to help patients relax during dental procedures. It is especially beneficial for those who experience dental anxiety, have sensitive teeth, or need extensive work done. The goal is to ensure a calm, pain-free experience while you receive the dental care you need.
At The Classic Smile, we offer several sedation options to fit the needs and preferences of our patients:
Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas)
A mild sedative that is inhaled through a mask. Nitrous oxide helps you relax, and its effects wear off quickly after the procedure, allowing you to go back to your day without any lingering effects. It's ideal for patients looking for a light, short-term sedation option.
Oral Sedation
For those with more severe anxiety, oral sedation might be the right choice. This involves taking a prescribed medication before your visit, which will help you feel calm and drowsy during the procedure. While you’ll remain awake, you’ll be deeply relaxed and may even fall asleep. The effects last longer, and you may need someone to drive you home afterward.
IV Sedation
We offer IV sedation for patients requiring extensive dental work or those who prefer a deeper level of sedation. This form of sedation is administered through a vein, allowing the sedative to take effect more quickly. You’ll remain relaxed, and some patients even fall into a light sleep. Our team closely monitors your vital signs to ensure your safety throughout the procedure.
