CONSCIOUS SEDATION
- Experience dental anxiety or fear.
- Experience a low pain tolerance or a sensitive gag reflex.
- Require lengthy or complex treatments.
- Feel uncomfortable during routine dental visits.
At Ridgetop Dental, conscious sedation ensures that your dental treatment is stress-free, no matter your needs or concerns.
Administration: Nitrous oxide is delivered through a small, comfortable mask placed over your nose.
Effect: Within minutes, you’ll feel calm and relaxed while remaining awake and aware of your surroundings.
Monitoring: Our experienced doctors carefully adjust the sedation level to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
Recovery: Once the treatment is complete, the effects of nitrous oxide wear off quickly. By breathing pure oxygen for a few minutes, you’ll feel back to normal and ready to continue your day.
