If you’re an anxious patient, the thought of instruments, sounds, and time in the chair can be enough to delay booking altogether. Sedation dentistry is designed to change that — creating an experience where you can receive the care you need in a state of deep calm and comfort.
Patients often tell us they’re surprised at just how easy it feels, and how much more confident they are about future visits once they’ve experienced it.
Today’s sedation methods are light-years ahead of old-fashioned approaches. Whether you’re here for a quick treatment or a longer, more complex procedure, sedation allows you to stay relaxed and unbothered throughout.

Sedation dentistry uses carefully chosen medication to keep you calm while still conscious and able to respond if needed. It’s tailored to your level of anxiety and the treatment you’re having. We offer:
