At Mcknight Square Dental, we offer conscious sedation options to patients who have dental anxiety and are compromised to calm them while they remain awake and able to communicate during their dental care.
Nitrous oxide commonly referred to as laughing gas, is inhaled through the nose, while dentist is trying to complete the definitive dental treatment. It tends to lessen anxiety, increase pain threshold, reduce gag reflex and make time pass more quickly.
Oral sedatives are pills or liquid prescribed by your dentist and taken orally. This oral medication is usually from a group of drugs known as Benzodiazapines.
