Sedation Dentistry
At Texas Periodontal Associates, we understand that many patients experience anxiety or fear when it comes to dental visits. That's why we offer sedation dentistry to ensure you receive the care you need in a relaxed, stress-free environment. Whether you're undergoing a routine procedure or a more complex treatment, our sedation options help you feel at ease, allowing us to deliver high-quality care with comfort and efficiency.
Our experienced team of board-certified periodontists offers a range of sedation options tailored to your individual needs, including nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral sedation, and IV sedation. These safe and effective methods help you remain calm and relaxed throughout your treatment, so you can focus on your oral health without the stress or discomfort.
Sedation dentistry is ideal for patients with dental anxiety, those undergoing lengthy procedures, or individuals with a low pain threshold. It is also a great option for those with sensitive gag reflexes or who need multiple treatments in one visit.
At Texas Periodontal Associates, we prioritize your comfort and safety. Our sedation options are carefully selected and monitored to ensure a comfortable, pain-free experience. No matter your dental needs, you can trust us to provide gentle, compassionate care every step of the way.
If you’re looking for a more relaxed dental experience, contact us today to learn more about sedation dentistry and how we can help you achieve a healthier, more confident smile — without the anxiety.
Frequently Asked Questions
After periodontal procedures or oral surgery, it's important to use a mouthwash that supports healing without harsh chemicals or alcohol that can irritate tissues. We recommend Stellalife® VEGA Oral Rinse, a natural, alcohol-free solution formulated to reduce inflammation, promote healing, and support overall oral health. It’s a great alternative to traditional mouthwashes, especially for sensitive patients. You can purchase Stellalife directly here https://amzn.to/4iHLpFA
