Why Sedation?

Nitrous Oxide, or laughing gas is administered by a nose piece that you wear through your appointment. It will “take the edge off” to let you relax. You might feel a little light headed, but it won’t put you to sleep. Nitrous works for short visits, as it wears off quickly to allow you to drive home.

Oral Sedation comes in the shape of a pill or liquid. The effects depend on the type prescribed: it could make you sleepy, or relax you to the point of not recalling your visit. Your Timber Dental Care sedation dentist will work with you to decide the best type and amount of the sedative for you and for your procedure. It’s important to note that oral sedation does not act as a pain reliever. You will still need to receive an anesthetic before any procedure can begin.

Intravenous (IV) sedation is given in cases that require a deep sedation. Because it is administered through an IV line, it acts fast, allowing you to fall into a deep sleep. Once the IV is removed, the medication wears off quickly.
