Experience Comfortable Oral Care With Soothing Sedation
Going to the dentist can sometimes make you feel nervous or anxious, but guess what? You can solve this issue with dental sedation that can make your visit a lot easier and more comfortable. You can feel relaxed or even take a quick nap while the dentist works on your teeth. Sedation can take away the worry, helping you feel calm during your appointment.
At Riverview Dental Associates, you have these sedation options:
- Laughing Gas - You breathe in this mild sedative through a mask placed over your nose. It makes you feel happy and relaxed but still awake. It takes effect quickly, and the feeling goes away quickly, too, once the mask comes off. You won't feel groggy and can drive yourself home.
- IV Sedation - This is another fast-acting option that makes you feel ultra relaxed or even sleepy during your dental visit. Patients with high anxiety or who need complex care often benefit from this choice. Its effects linger, so you will need to arrange a ride home after your appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sedation Options
Does sedation dentistry work for most patients?
Over the years, we have found that most patients respond well to our sedation options. If you tend to suffer from dental anxiety, we have a sedation method that will work for you. Our goal is to help you relax as much as possible so you can get the care your smile needs. We'll do our best to make sure your procedure is completely pleasant.
Are your sedation options safe?
Yes, our sedation dentistry is completely safe because it is expertly administered and monitored by our trained team. Inhaled sedation uses mild laughing gas, which is safe even for children. IV sedation can be adjusted throughout treatment. You can feel confident in our team's ability to use our dental sedation options for your benefit.
How long does dental sedation last?
The length varies, depending on the type of sedation used. You inhale laughing gas through a mask worn over your nose. It wears off very quickly when the mask is removed. You also won't feel groggy; you'll even be able to drive yourself home. In contrast, you'll feel the effects of IV sedation for up to several hours after your procedure.
