It’s important to let our team know if you suffer from dental anxiety, as we will ensure you understand the treatments required in whatever level of detail that makes you feel most comfortable and share the process of sedation dentistry in case it’s of interest to you.

 

The American Dental Association supports the use of sedation to ensure patients who require procedures like dental fillings, crowns, bridges, root canal therapy, tooth extractions, cosmetic treatments, and periodontal procedures are comfortable. 

 

At North Bethesda Dental Associates we provide prescription medication to manage anxiety as well as offering laughing gas (nitrous oxide) to increase your comfort during procedures. Please feel free to contact our office if you have any questions about sedation dentistry as they will be happy to share more information.
