Sedation Dentistry
Sedation dentistry lets Tukwila residents say good-bye to dental anxiety.
Sedation dentistry allows you to relax while getting the dental care you need. Whether you experience anxiety at the thought of a visit to the dentist or have complicated procedures scheduled, we can provide a level of sedation that will make your visit with us comfortable before, during, and after.
We Offer Three Types of Sedation
Inhalation Sedation
(Nitrous oxide or "laughing gas)
As the most popular form of sedation in dentistry, inhalation sedation utilizes nitrous oxide and oxygen to make you more relaxed during your dental appointment.
Oral Conscious Sedation
(An anti-anxiety medication taken before the appointment)
This type of sedation will cause relaxation while remaining conscious and responsive. The patient is prescribed an anti-anxiety medication (typically Valium or Halcion) to be taken an hour before the appointment.
Intravenous Sedation
For this type of sedation the patient receives anxiety-reducing and pain-reducing medications through an IV that is administered and monitored by a certified dental anesthesiologist. Patients typically do not remember the dental appointment and feel that they have been asleep through the treatment.
This type of sedation is ideal for minimizing anxiety, pain, and memory associated with the dental appointment.
