Sedation Dentist Wilmington
We Help Create Pleasant Patient Experiences
Cosmetic Coast Dental Spa’s talented leader, Dr. Lundgren, believes patients should have a pleasant experience while in our office. Unlike corporate dental practices that move individuals in and out quickly from the treatment chair, we take our time to learn what you need and how we can ensure an enjoyable visit. Part of how we do this is with sedation dentistry in Wilmington. Using nitrous oxide and oral conscious sedation, we can calm your nerves and create a positive change in how you view the dentist’s office. Call us to inquire about our available sedation dentistry options to learn which one might be right for you.
Why Choose Cosmetic Coast Dental Spa for Sedation Dentistry?
- Two Methods of Sedation Available for Patients in Need
- Same-Day Dental Appointments for Emergency Patients
- Friendly Dentist Who Prioritizes Comfort
Oral Conscious Sedation
Oral conscious sedation is administered as a prescribed pill. Easier to take and void of any needles, it is often recommended for patients who struggle with moderate to severe dental anxiety or who are preparing for multiple treatments during a single appointment. Its effects allow patients to enter into a deeper state of relaxation as opposed to nitrous oxide, dulling the senses for improved comfort. In many cases, patients will be unable to recall much of their visit.
Nitrous Oxide Sedation
Nitrous oxide is also known as laughing gas and is one of the safest methods of sedation available. Its mild side effects help to take the edge off for those who suffer from minor dental anxiety or who have difficulty sitting still in the treatment chair. The mixture is inhaled through a nasal mask that produces a euphoric-like state, leaving patients relaxed, comfortable, and even giggling throughout their appointment. The effects of the nitrous oxide wear off quickly, so individuals do not need to have anyone drive them home.
