Visit Us for Modern Sedation Techniques

Without dental sedation, many people would not be able to get the care their smiles need. Sedation comes in handy for a number of applications:

  • If you are simply too anxious to sit through a dental appointment
  • For extended procedures where you might find it difficult to remain still
  • If you have a strong gag reflex and can't otherwise tolerate having someone working in your mouth
  • If you want the option of receiving several treatments in a single visit

You can also take advantage of our comfort menu, especially designed to help you feel relaxed and at home. Opt for bottled water, plush blankets, or stress balls. You can listen to your choice of music and use a soft pillow during your visit.

Enjoy Accessible Dental Care

Glendale Gentle Dentistry offers you three choices for sedation. One of them will be right for your needs:

  • Inhaled Sedation - Laughing gas gives you a feeling of lightness. Effects that wear off quickly so you'll be able to drive yourself home safely.
  • Oral Conscious Sedation - Dr. Stanfield will prescribe a small pill that will put you in a completely relaxed state. The effects will last for some time, so someone will need to drive you home afterward.
  • IV Conscious Sedation - Using intravenous sedation, our team will put you in a dreamlike state. You won't remember any of the sights, sounds, smells, or sensations of your dental work.

Our Glendale sedation options make all the difference when it comes to comfortable dental care.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sedation Options

Does sedation dentistry work for most patients?

Over the years, we have found that most patients respond well to our sedation options. If you tend to suffer from dental anxiety, we have a sedation method that will work for you. Our goal is to help you relax as much as possible so you can get the care your smile needs. We'll do our best to make sure your procedure is completely pleasant.

What sedation options are available to me?

We offer two kinds of sedation: inhaled sedation (also called laughing gas) and oral sedation in the form of a prescription pill. We'll help you choose the kind of sedation that will work best for you. Among other factors, we'll consider your medical history, your anxiety level, and the type of procedure you're undergoing.

What should I expect after dental sedation?

If you choose inhaled sedation with laughing gas, the effects of the sedative will vanish immediately after your exam or procedure. You should have no problem safely driving yourself home. With oral conscious sedation, the pill's effects will linger for a few hours, so you'll need a trusted friend or family member to drive you home afterward.
