What is Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation dentistry offers a modern, patient-centered way to make dental treatments more comfortable by using medication to help you relax. At River Run Dental, we provide a range of sedation options tailored to your needs:
Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas): A light sedative you inhale, helping you feel calm and at ease throughout your procedure.
Oral Sedation: A prescribed pill taken before your appointment that promotes relaxation and minimizes dental anxiety.
IV Sedation: Delivered directly into the bloodstream, IV sedation offers a deeper level of calm, ideal for more involved treatments.
General Anesthesia: Used for extensive or surgical procedures, general anesthesia allows you to sleep through the entire process without discomfort or fear.
At River Run Dental, we’re committed to making every visit as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Our experienced team is here to create a relaxing experience tailored to your comfort level.
