At O2 Dental Group of Durham, our team of expert local dentists and staff are committed to providing you safe, effective, and relaxing treatments. That said, some patients still struggle with anxiety and noise sensitivity while in the dentist's chair. To help treat these symptoms, we offer sedation dentistry options that help eliminate feelings of stress or fear.
Conscious Oral Sedation
Remember, if you take oral sedation, you cannot drive after your appointment. Make sure you have a friend or family member pick you up and drive you home following your appointment.
Laughing Gas
Dental anxiety can prevent many patients from visiting the dentist for checkups and much-needed dental work. If dental appointments make you anxious, our dentists can administer laughing gas to help you feel more at ease during your visit.
At O2 Dental Group of Durham, laughing gas is administered using a mask, allowing you to feel more at ease within minutes. If you are feeling anxious about an upcoming dental treatment, ask about nitrous oxide. Most of our patients are good candidates for this treatment, including our pediatric dental patients.
