Sedation Dentist Windermere
Get Comfortable While Taking Care of Your Smile
Taking care of your oral health is extremely important, but our Windermere Dentistry team also understands that dental-related anxiety and fear can be powerful emotions. If you’re struggling to remain calm as you try and schedule your next appointment, talk to our staff members about the possibility of undergoing sedation. Sedation dentistry helps take the edge off negative emotions and creates a more relaxed atmosphere for patients in need. These techniques are very safe, and our highly experienced dentists will be sure to prioritize your comfort every step of the way.

Nitrous Oxide
Also known as “laughing gas,” nitrous oxide is a mild sedative that can help patients relax much more effectively during their appointment. The gas is administered through a mask that fits over the nose, and within a few minutes of breathing it in, the effects should take hold. Unlike other sedation techniques, patients will recover quickly from nitrous oxide and will not require an escort once they leave our practice.
Oral Conscious Sedation
Oral conscious sedation is excellent for our patients with moderate to more severe dental fear or anxiety, or for those who are receiving longer treatments. Before your appointment, your dentist in Windermere will prescribe you a medication, called Halcion, that you’ll pick up from your local pharmacy. You’ll take it before reaching our office, so the effects will kick-in by the time you arrive. For this reasons, you’ll need to have a trusted friend or family member ready to drop you off and pick you up from the practice.
