At our dental clinic, we prioritize a comforting experience, helping patients overcome dental fear and anxiety with the use of sedation options. No matter your past experiences, there’s no need for embarrassment. Our team is committed to making your visit comfortable, calm, and tailored to your needs.
Nitrous Oxide Sedation (Laughing Gas)
Oral Sedation
IV Sedation
Children with severe dental anxiety, dental phobias, or who aren’t able to sit for the procedure may benefit from sedation dentistry. However, parents should consult with both their child’s dentist and their pediatrician before making a decision.
Patients who are obese or have obstructive sleep apnea should consult with both their dentist and their family doctor before making a decision.
If you or your child experiences any unusual or unexpected reactions, you should contact our office immediately at +1 (250) 383-0123. If our office is closed, proceed to your nearest drop-in clinic or emergency room.
A good rule of thumb is to allow a full 24 hours after the procedure for the full effects of dental sedation to wear off.
Dentists use a combination of sedation and anesthetic to keep you relaxed and pain-free throughout your procedure. Many patients leave the appointment with little to no memory of their treatment and feel good afterward.
Contact us to discuss the sedation option that best suits your needs, and take the first step toward a calm, stress-free dental experience. Let us help you feel confident and comfortable in every dental visit.
We always take care of your smile
