Stress‑Free Dental Visits With Safe Sedation Dentistry
Do you tense up or feel nervous at the thought of seeing the dentist? You’re not alone—many patients struggle with dental anxiety or phobia, which can keep them from getting vital care. At East Side Modern Dentistry, we can make every visit easier by offering customized sedation dentistry.
Levels of Sedation
Sedation dentistry provides a safe and effective way to help you feel more comfortable during treatment. We customize the level of sedation based on your needs, from minimal relaxation to deeper levels of comfort.
- Minimal Sedation: Minimal sedation helps you feel calm and relaxed while remaining fully awake and able to communicate throughout your visit. It is often a good option for patients with mild dental anxiety or those undergoing shorter procedures.
- Moderate Sedation: Moderate sedation creates a deeper sense of relaxation. You remain awake and responsive but feel much less aware of stress or anxiety. This option is often beneficial for patients with stronger dental fears or more complex treatments.
Our priority is your comfort and safety. Together, we’ll decide on the right option so you never have to put off care. Contact us to learn more about sedation dentistry in Falcon.
Types of Sedation Dentistry We Provide to Patients
Sedation dentistry offers safe, effective options to help patients feel comfortable during treatment. The level of sedation is selected based on your needs, treatment complexity, and medical history.
Oral Conscious Sedation
A prescribed medication taken before your appointment helps you feel deeply relaxed while remaining awake and responsive throughout treatment. Many patients experience little memory of the procedure afterward.
Full Sedation
For patients who require a deeper level of relaxation, we work with Rocky Mountain Dental Anesthesia Group, a mobile dental anesthesiology team that can provide full sedation services in our office when appropriate.
