SEDATION
We Offer Relaxing Dental Sedation For a Stress Free Visit In Rogers
Dental phobia is a common issue that many people live with. The thought of having major dental treatments can also cause significant anxiety, which is why sedation dentistry is an excellent option for those who need help feeling more relaxed during their dental procedure. Sedation can also help you complete multiple procedures in fewer visits.
At Exo Dental, we offer a variety of dental sedation options to help patients feel comfortable and calm during their appointments. Our licensed sedation dentist in Rogers, AR will help you determine which sedation option is best for your unique needs.
IV Sedation
Intravenous (IV) sedation is a powerful sedation option that is administered through an intravenous line in your arm. IV sedation puts you in a state of deep relaxation and makes it almost feel like you’re sleeping through your surgical procedures. Patients who receive IV sedation are monitored closely throughout the entire procedure to ensure their safety. Because of the deep sedation medications used, you will need to have someone accompany you to and from your appointment.

Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas)
Nitrous oxide is a mild sedative that is inhaled through a small mask placed over your nose. It’s commonly used in dental practices because of its safety for patients of all ages. Nitrous oxide helps you feel more relaxed and comfortable during most dental procedures and even helps if you have a sensitive gag reflex. The effects of nitrous oxide wear off quickly, so patients can typically drive themselves home after their appointment.

Oral Sedation
Oral sedation or “conscious oral sedation” involves taking a specific type of medication before the procedure to help you feel relaxed and calm. The medication is usually taken about an hour before the planned treatment, so you feel completely day-dreamy by the time the procedure begins. Oral sedation is a safe and effective way to help patients who experience dental anxiety. Most people also experience amnesia as a side effect, preventing them from remembering much about the procedure.
