Sedation Dentistry
Relax. We’ve Got You Covered.
Dental care shouldn’t feel overwhelming. For patients who experience dental anxiety, sensitivity, or are undergoing longer or more involved procedures, sedation dentistry can make treatment feel calmer and more comfortable.
At Oakville Dental House, we offer IV sedation and nitrous oxide (laughing gas) to help you relax during your appointment.
With IV sedation, medication is delivered through a vein to create a deeply relaxed, drowsy state. You remain conscious and able to respond to your dental team, but may feel very relaxed and have little awareness of the procedure. Many patients remember very little of their appointment afterward. Because IV sedation can affect alertness and coordination, you’ll need someone to accompany you home and should plan to rest for the remainder of the day.
Nitrous oxide provides a lighter level of relaxation through a small mask and wears off quickly once the gas is stopped.
Our team will review your health history, treatment needs, and comfort level to determine which option is appropriate for you.
