What Is Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation dentistry uses medication to create a calm state, helping you relax while receiving the dental care you need. Our team is fully certified to administer dental sedation, with your safety and well-being always our top priorities.
At Noblesville Dental Associates, we offer nitrous oxide, oral sedation, and IV sedation options, depending on your unique needs.
Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas): You'll inhale a combination of nitrous oxide gas and oxygen through a mask placed over your nose. The effects of sedation are felt quickly and wear off almost immediately after your treatment, allowing you to drive home safely.
Oral Sedation:You'll take a prescribed medication before your dental appointment, allowing for a deeper level of relaxation while you remain awake and responsive. Oral sedation can be ideal for patients with moderate anxiety or those needing lengthy or complex procedures.
IV Sedation: With IV sedation, the sedative medication is delivered straight into your bloodstream using an IV, producing a deep state of relaxation. You will be conscious but will not remember much of your time with us. IV sedation can be ideal for patients with severe dental anxiety or those in need of complex treatments.
