Dental fear and anxiety prevent many people from getting the dental care they need. Thankfully sedation dentistry has made it possible to bridge the gap between dental disease and health in a way that's pleasant.
Cross Timbers Dental in a dental office in Flower Mound, Texas offers sedation dentistry. There are 3 forms of sedation.
1. Laughing gas (nitrous oxide) - This is when the patient wears a mask over their nose and breath in the sedative agent.
2. Oral sedation (pills) + Laughing gas. This increases the sedative effect.
3. IV sedation - This is when the dentist works with an anesthesiologist to reach a deep level of sedation.
