Available Sedation Methods at Espire Dental Roxborough

Sedation dentistry helps patients manage anxiety, fear, or discomfort during dental procedures. From routine cleanings to more advanced treatments, our sedation options allow you to stay calm and relaxed, making your visit to the dentist a breeze. At Espire Dental Roxborough, we focus on two key types of sedation:

Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas): Ideal for mild to moderate anxiety, nitrous oxide provides a light form of sedation that keeps you conscious and aware but deeply relaxed. It’s quick to administer, easy to adjust, and wears off soon after the procedure so you can get back to your day without delay.
IV Sedation: If you experience more severe dental anxiety or are undergoing a longer or more complex procedure, IV sedation offers a deeper level of relaxation. Administered directly into the bloodstream, this form of sedation works quickly and allows for precise control throughout your treatment.

By offering both nitrous oxide and IV sedation, we ensure that each patient receives the most appropriate form of care based on their level of anxiety, treatment requirements, and personal comfort.

Is nitrous oxide safe for children?

Yes, nitrous oxide is a very safe option for children and adults. It’s commonly used to help kids stay calm during their dental visits while remaining awake and responsive.

Will I remember the procedure with IV sedation?

With IV sedation, most patients do not remember the procedure. You’ll feel deeply relaxed, and while you might be awake, you likely won’t recall much about the treatment afterward.

Can I drive home after nitrous oxide sedation?

Yes! The effects of nitrous oxide wear off almost immediately after the procedure, allowing you to drive yourself home and resume your normal activities.

How long does IV sedation last?

The effects of IV sedation can last for several hours after the procedure. You’ll need someone to drive you home, and it’s important to rest for the remainder of the day.

Is sedation covered by insurance?

In some cases, insurance may cover sedation, especially if it’s deemed necessary for complex procedures. Our team will work with you to verify your coverage and ensure you understand all costs involved.

Can I eat or drink before IV sedation?

For IV sedation, we’ll ask you to refrain from eating or drinking for several hours before your procedure to ensure safety. We’ll provide full pre-op instructions during your consultation.
