Types of Sedation Dentistry

Dentist and a staff member talking with a patient
  • Nitrous Oxide: The most common type of dental sedation is nitrous oxide or laughing gas. You will remain awake, but you’ll feel giddy and light-headed. You may even laugh uncontrollably. The effects wear off immediately after you start breathing regular air.
  • Oral Sedation: Oral sedation involves a prescription pill taken before your appointment. You will remain awake, but you’ll feel dazed and lethargic. In some cases, you may not have any memory of your visit or the procedure. The effects wear off within a few hours.
  • IV Sedation: Light IV sedation allows you to remain awake but puts you at ease. You will feel overwhelmingly relaxed with our gentle family dentistry in Henderson, NV. The effects of this sedation wear off after a few hours.
  • General Anesthesia: Under the effects of general anesthesia, you’ll lose all consciousness. You will not hear or see anything around you. You’ll have no memory of your treatment. General anesthesia wears off after several hours.

How Much Does Dental Sedation Cost?

Dental sedation has a wide price range, depending on your specific diagnosis. Our $25 Emergency Special will allow our doctor to give you a more specific treatment and price.

Frequently Asked Questions about Dental Sedation

  • Is dental anxiety common?

    Yes! Studies suggest that 50% of Americans are afraid of the dentist. Up to 20% avoid dental appointments due to their fear.

    Please contact our Henderson dentist to learn how we can make your visit anxiety-free with dental sedation. Our gentle family dentistry helps you get the care you need while feeling comfortable from start to finish.

  • Is dental sedation just for anxiety?

    Many people can benefit from sedation dentistry, including those who:

    • Have a strong gag reflex.
    • Have difficulty getting numb.
    • Have extremely sensitive teeth.
    • Struggle to sit still for a long time.
    • Are undergoing a very long procedure.
  • What happens if I avoid the dentist?

    Bi-annual dental exams are necessary to identify tooth decay, gum disease, cavities, infection, and signs of oral cancer. Left untreated, these symptoms may lead to unintended consequences such as bad breath, cracked teeth, severe toothache, tooth loss, or even life-threatening complications.

    Sedation dentistry is an effective way to help ease you back into the dental chair. Please contact our team at Inspirada Dental and Orthodontics to discuss your needs, and we’ll do our best to help you.

  • What kind of treatment can I have while sedated?
    Anything! We can do all types of dental treatments while you are sedated at Inspirada Dental and Orthodontics in Henderson, NV. We’ll discuss your needs and recommend the best type of sedation dentistry.
  • How can I remain calm naturally?
    • Meditate: Focus on slow, controlled breathing. Holding your breath can actually increase your anxiety, so breathe in and out with measured intention.
    • Distract yourself: Bring your headphones and listen to music, an audiobook, or your favorite podcast. This can drown out the sound of dental instruments and help you remain at peace.
    • Communicate: Be sure to share your fears with our staff. We’re compassionate and empathetic. We know how common dental anxiety is, so we won’t take offense.
