Comfortable & Anxiety-Free Dental Care
At Van Orman Dental, we understand that dental anxiety can prevent patients—especially children and those with special needs—from getting the care they need. Our dental sedation options ensure a calm, comfortable, and stress-free experience during dental treatments. Whether your child is nervous about a procedure or you require extensive dental work, sedation dentistry can help make your visit relaxing and pain-free.
What Is Dental Sedation?
Dental sedation involves using medication to help patients feel calm and relaxed during dental procedures. It is especially beneficial for:
- Children with severe dental anxiety
- Patients undergoing lengthy or complex treatments
- Individuals with a strong gag reflex
- Patients with special healthcare needs
Types of Dental Sedation We Offer
At Van Orman Dental, we provide safe and effective sedation options tailored to your needs.
Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas):- A mild sedative inhaled through a small nose mask. Helps relax patients without putting them to sleep. Wears off quickly, allowing patients to resume daily activities immediately.
Oral Sedation (Pill or Liquid Form):- A prescribed sedative taken before the procedure to induce deep relaxation. Patients remain awake but drowsy and may not remember much of the procedure. Ideal for moderate to severe dental anxiety.
IV Sedation (Intravenous Sedation):- Administered through an IV for deep relaxation. Patients are conscious but in a dream-like state. Used for complex procedures or extreme dental anxiety.
General Anesthesia (Sleep Dentistry): monitoring and recovery time post-treatment.
Is Dental Sedation Safe?
Yes! Our dental sedation options are safe and administered by trained professionals. We carefully assess your medical history, age, and procedure requirements before recommending the best sedation option.
