If you’re dealing with dental anxiety and avoiding the dentist, your oral health will suffer. We’ve got a better way to reduce dental anxiety, stress, and fear – sedation dentistry! With sedation dentistry, you can get the dental treatments you need to maintain good dental health without experiencing pain, discomfort, or fear. You can benefit from affordable sedation options for stress-free dental treatments at Rise Dental Boutique, Del Mar, California.
 Using medication, Dr. Anu Mohan can help you feel calm, comfortable, and relaxed throughout your dental treatment. There are sedation options that produce mild, moderate, or strong relaxing effects to coincide with the treatment you need. These include the following:
Nitrous oxide (laughing gas): Dr. Mohan will place a mask over your nose for you to inhale the gas to help you relax while we’re working on your teeth.
Oral sedation: For oral sedation, you’ll be given a pill to be taken about an hour before your treatment. This pill will make you drowsy to minimize the effects of stress, anxiety, and fear.
IV sedation: IV sedation provides strong relaxing effects and is reserved mainly for oral surgery. The medication is administered through your blood and takes effect immediately. You may fall asleep during treatment. Afterward, you may have little memory of what occurred during your treatment.
Imagine getting quality dental care without anxiety and fear – that’s what you can expect from sedation dentistry. With sedation dentistry, you can look forward to:
