Our goal is always to make your experience as comfortable and anxiety-free as possible!
Our skilled dentists in Olympia, WA, offer different levels of sedation to cater to your individual needs and the complexity of your procedure. Our top sedation dentistry offerings include:
Nitrous Oxide Sedation (Laughing Gas)
If dental appointments make you feel anxious, Olympia Advanced Dentistry offers nitrous oxide to help you relax. This safe and mild gas is inhaled through a comfortable mask, easing tension and making procedures more comfortable. The effects are temporary, wearing off rapidly after your visit, allowing you to resume your normal activities without delay. If you need extra support to feel more at ease during your visit, ask our team about gentle laughing gas sedation!
Oral Conscious Sedation for Anxiety
If dental anxiety makes it difficult for you to receive the care you need, conscious oral sedation offers a safe and effective way to feel more relaxed and comfortable during your appointment. Administered as a pill or liquid taken before your procedure, this type of sedation will help you feel drowsy and less aware of what's happening, though you will remain conscious and able to respond to our team. Its effects typically last for a few hours, and though you'll be awake, you'll experience a significant reduction in anxiety and a greater sense of calm, making your dental visit a much more pleasant experience.
Your Sedation Dentistry Consultation
Before recommending any form of dental sedation, your provider will thoroughly discuss your health history and the planned procedure to determine the safest, most effective option for you. We will explain the sedation process in detail, answer all your questions, and ensure you feel comfortable and confident in your choice.
