If you get nervous about dental appointments, your dentist can help. There are a wide range of sedation options available, depending on your level of anxiety. Your dentist will be happy to discuss the best option for you:
– Laughing gas is one of the mildest forms of sedation that means patients can still drive afterwards.
– Medium-strength oral sedatives can be used to quell any anxiety but allow you to remain conscious.
– If you have severe anxiety about procedures on your teeth, general anaesthesia may be the best option.
“Laughing gas may be a good fit for you if you feel uncomfortable with deeper levels of sedation.”
