Norman Sedation Dentist
Relaxing, stress-free dental care
Feeling anxious? We’ve got you
Dental visits shouldn’t be stressful. If you experience anxiety, a strong gag reflex, or difficulty sitting through procedures, our Norman sedation dentist, Dr. Audrey May-Jones, offers safe, customized sedation options to help you relax.
Whether you need to manage mild anxiety or are undergoing a complex procedure, we ensure a comfortable, pain-free experience so you can get the care you need with confidence.
Your comfort, your way
Sedation dentistry makes treatments easier and more comfortable by helping you stay calm and relaxed. Our options include:
- Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas): A mild, fast-acting sedation option that helps ease anxiety while keeping you awake and aware. The effects wear off quickly, so you can resume your day after your appointment.
- Oral Sedation: A prescription medication taken before your visit to create a deep sense of relaxation. You’ll remain conscious but feel at ease, with little memory of the procedure.
- IV Sedation: A deeper level of relaxation administered through an IV, ideal for longer or more complex treatments. You’ll stay conscious but in a dream-like state.
- General Anesthesia: For patients with severe anxiety, special needs, or extensive procedures, general anesthesia allows you to sleep completely through treatment with no memory of the procedure.
Sedation Dentistry FAQs
Is sedation dentistry safe?
Yes! We take every precaution to ensure your safety, and sedation is carefully administered by trained professionals. Dr. Audrey will review your medical history and discuss the best option for you.
Will I be awake during sedation?
It depends on the type of sedation. Nitrous oxide and oral sedation keep you awake but deeply relaxed. IV sedation creates a dream-like state where you may drift in and out of awareness. General anesthesia allows you to sleep completely through the procedure.
How long does sedation last?
The effects vary by type: nitrous oxide wears off quickly, while oral sedation, IV sedation, and general anesthesia take longer to wear off, so you’ll need someone to drive you home after your appointment.
