Sedation

Our team at Palm Beach Periodontics in Boynton Beach and West Palm Beach is committed to helping our patients feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible. We understand that dental treatment can often be uncomfortable and anxiety-inducing. That’s why we are proud to offer several sedation options.

Oral Conscious Sedation

One effective, non-invasive method is oral conscious sedation. This option allows you to experience a deep sense of relaxation while still remaining conscious and able to communicate with our team, ensuring your safety and well-being throughout the procedure. This method involves the use of an oral medication that will leave you in a much more relaxed state during the procedure, and oftentimes, leave you with no memory of the procedure after it is completed.

Nitrous Oxide

Another sedation option we offer is nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas. Nitrous oxide is a safe and effective form of sedation that can help you feel calm and at ease during your dental procedure. It is administered by inhaling a mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen through a mask placed over your nose. This type of sedation allows you to remain conscious and responsive but in a more relaxed state with no residual effects after the procedure is completed.
