Sedation Dentistry in Roslyn Heights
What is Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation dentistry helps patients to relax during their dental procedures. Sometimes, the anticipation of dental work can increase stress and cause anxiety in kids of all ages. Because of this, having options to make patients calm and comfortable is both beneficial to the child and the dental team.
There are different types of sedation available based on the need and the procedure.

Local Anesthesia
A topical or injected anesthetic that focuses on treating pain in specific, localized areas. It wears off within a couple of hours after treatment.
Nitrous Oxide
Also known as laughing gas, nitrous oxide is breathed through the nose normally throughout the length of the treatment. Patients feel calm and comfortable very quickly after putting it on and the effects wear off moments after the gas is removed.
IV Sedation
This is often referred to as general anesthesia and is done under the careful supervision of an anesthesiologist. Different medications are used to allow the patient to sleep while being treated. This method is often reserved for those undergoing more invasive dental procedures.
