Sedation dentistry in Fontana, CA, can help you overcome dental anxiety and allow you to reestablish oral care.
Our dental office offers three levels of sedation, and your dentist can customize these options to meet your needs.
About Sedation Dentistry
Sedation Dentistry is ideal for patients who feel anxious or those undergoing lengthy, invasive dental procedures. If you’re having treatment and want to consider sedation dentistry, talk to your Fontana dentist.
Nitrous Oxide
Nitrous oxide, delivered through a nose mask, produces feelings of tranquility and detachment from your dental treatment. You’ll be aware of treatment but likely not bothered by it. After your procedure, your dentist removes the mask, and you can return home or to work. Because there are no aftereffects, you can drive yourself.
Oral Sedation
Oral sedation is more powerful than nitrous oxide. It is a pill taken before treatment, but it does not put you to sleep. However, you may not remember your dental procedure. With this sedation method, it’s important to have a friend or family member drive you home.
IV Sedation
IV sedation allows you to sleep through your treatment! This is ideal for patients with dental anxiety in Fontana, CA. As with oral sedation, you’ll need a ride home!
Combination Sedation
Sometimes, your dentist will use more than one sedation method for optimal results.
