Types of Sedation Dentistry in Wheaton IL

Our dedicated team recognizes the importance of making your visit to the dentist an extremely relaxing and pain-free experience. Through sedation dentistry, our goal is to make you feel comfortable and calm during your dental visit so that it will be easy for the dentist to perform the procedure more efficiently, shortening the treatment time. For those with severe dental anxiety, sedation dentistry is like a blessing as these patients often delay their treatment or avoid meeting their dentist due to their fears. This delay can result in untreated oral conditions over time, leading to further complications. However, with the help of sedation dentistry, such patients can overcome this debilitating phobia and receive timely treatment, thus improving both their oral and overall health in return.

Some types of sedation dentistry Arden Dental Center implements include:

• Oral Conscious Sedation - Oral conscious sedation involves using sedatives and pain relievers to make the patients fall into a relaxed state of consciousness and avoid feeling any pain or discomfort.
• Nitrous Oxide Sedation - Nitrous oxide, or "laughing gas", is inhaled through a mask and puts the patient in a calm state, keeping them relaxed. Its effect wears off soon after the treatment.
• IV Sedation - IV or intravenous sedation is a deeper type of sedation administered to the patient to relieve their dental anxiety and keep them calm while the treatment is performed.
