Oral Conscious Sedation

To treat mild to moderate forms of dental anxiety, Dr. Diaz will prescribe a pill medication, which patients can take before their appointment. Designed to curb fears and create a more calming experience, oral conscious sedation does not fully sedate patients but instead allows for a more relaxed state while our team delivers necessary dental treatment. When choosing this type of sedation, patients are required to have someone escort them home after their appointment.

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

Nitrous oxide is used for those who experience mild dental anxiety and who need help to “take the edge off” when visiting the dentist’s office. Known as “laughing gas,” it can cause individuals to enter into a euphoric state, making it possible for Dr. Diaz and our team to provide essential care with ease. The effects of nitrous oxide come on quickly and dissipate just as fast, making it possible for patients to resume normal activity immediately following their visit.
