Sedation Dentistry
Pediatric Sedation Dentistry
At Prime Children’s Dentistry and Orthodontics, we know that a negative experience at the dentist can lead to a lifetime of anxiety. Dental phobia is not only uncomfortable, but also discourages patients from receiving the routine oral care that they need to maintain their beautiful smile. You’ll find that our whole practice revolves around encouraging a healthy, happy relationship with your child, for life.
Taking Their Mind off of the Dentist
We understand that new places and experiences can make anyone a little nervous, especially children. From the moment your child enters our office, they’ll delve into a wonderland of fun and adventure. Meet our nearly life-size elephant who’s busy roasting marshmallows over the campfire, or cross the bridge that dangles over crocodiles, who are only too happy to show off their toothy grins.
Patients can relax in our dental chairs, with a comfy animal neck pillow to offer a little friendly support, and let their gaze wander to their favorite cartoon overhead, or to the tiger peeking through the ceiling.
Types of Sedation Available
To ensure your child’s ultimate comfort during a dental treatment, we offer three different types of sedation options for you to choose from if we all deem it necessary:
Nitrous Oxide
By simply breathing through a soft nose-mask, your child will inhale a sedative gas to float into a relaxed state.
Oral Sedation
With a simple oral medication, patients feel serene and doses can be tailored to each child and their level of anxiety.
