With Three Choices, Find the Right Level of Sedation

Our dentists have the training and experience to safely administer three different forms of dental sedation to suit your needs:

  • Inhaled Sedation – By breathing in a mixture of oxygen and medication, you can quickly ease back in your heated massage chair and let the sedative take the edge off. It’s safe for all ages, takes effect and wears off quickly, and allows mildly fearful patients to get the treatment they need more easily.
  • Oral Sedation – You might have a longer treatment lined up and would like a stronger sedative to calm your nerves. Oral sedation is a great choice. You’ll receive a prescription to take before your appointment, so your body will be deeply relaxed and your mind at ease. For your safety, you’ll need to have someone drive you to and from your appointment.
  • IV Sedation – This is the strongest form of sedation we offer. It allows patients with dental phobia, a sensitive gag reflex, low pain tolerance, or multiple treatments planned during a single appointment to be in a deep state of relaxation. We’re trained to monitor the sedative level throughout your procedure and can adjust it as needed. As with oral sedation, you will need to arrange transportation.

We’re committed to making Edgewood Dental Care a warm, judgment-free zone where you always feel safe, heard, and supported. In addition to sedation, that means:
