Sedation

 

At K.L.O. Dental we understand that every individual’s experience undergoing dental care is different and that some may feel anxious with the overall experience. Regardless of the cause, we offer a couple safe options for sedation to make you as comfortable.

 

The two common methods are through oral medication or nitrous oxide inhalation. Oral medication is typically preferred for treatments such as root canals, extractions or oral surgery, as the patient can become very calm and awake or sleepy during treatment, and recover from the sedation with a few hours.

 

“Laughing gas,” or nitrous oxide, can also be used for children and adults, allowing for a very quick recovery – perfect for situations which you may have to go back to work.

 

In either situation, Dr. Kozak will ensure you are as comfortable as possible.
