Stay Relaxed With Atlanta Sedation Options

Almost everyone feels nervous or fearful at the dentist at least occasionally. For some people, it’s a regular occurrence. But with our caring staff and sedation options in Atlanta, you don’t need to feel nervous ever again.

In addition to dental sedation, you’ll enjoy peace of mind with:

  • A team who can provide nearly any dental service, from exams to dental implants, so you can receive your care from people you know and trust
  • Complete explanations of possible treatments so you understand all your options
  • Technology like an intraoral camera and digital X-rays for finding problems when they are small and simple to treat
  • Local anesthesia to numb your mouth prior to treatment
  • Large windows with a soothing view
  • Comforts like pillows, blankets, pleasant music, and a refreshment bar

To make an appointment for stress-free treatment, call 770-802-1120.

Choose From Two Kinds of Sedation

To ensure you’ll be able to remain relaxed throughout any procedure, we offer two kinds of sedation:

  • Inhaled Sedation – This form of light sedation, also called laughing gas, works well for mild and moderate anxiety. It takes effect very quickly when it’s inhaled through a small mask. Its fast-acting nature makes it a good choice for dental emergencies. It also wears off quickly and won’t leave you groggy. You can even drive yourself home after your appointment.
  • Oral Sedative – We can prescribe a safe pill for you to take prior to your procedure. It will relax you more deeply than laughing gas, so it works well for more serious anxiety or to help you remain still for lengthy treatment. Because you’ll feel groggy for a few hours, you’ll need to arrange transportation home.

Dental Sedation Isn’t Just for Nerves

While we use sedation to ease dental anxiety, it serves other useful purposes, including:

  • Relieving a sensitive gag reflex to make it easier to receive treatment
  • Making it easier for you to remain relaxed throughout a long procedure, or to receive multiple procedures during a single appointment
  • Giving you peace of mind if you’ve had past difficulties in getting numb with anesthesia

Call 770-802-1120 for relaxed treatment with sedation options in Atlanta.

I had to have tooth pulled because it was disintegrating at the root. Dr Paez found the problem is been feeling when I chewed and advised me on options. Kathy got cost estimates for me on a bridge vs implant. I chose implant. Dr Paez and Kathy were great during tooth extraction process, very gentle and reassuring. Afterward I’ve had no swelling and minimal pain that I treated with normal dosages of ibuprofen.

First of all, I do not subscribe to posting my experiences for the world to see. Relinquishing personal persona is for narcissists. This is a professional relationship between me and a business. I have been a dental patient with your business for over 40 years. The dental hygienist, administrative assistants at the desks are all extremely professional and pleasant, most of my original doctors have retired; I still trust and appreciate this dental office. Accolades to everyone who works there!

Common Questions About Sedation Options

At 3640 Dental, we offer two sedation options: oral sedation and laughing gas. Laughing gas is very simple to receive through a nasal mask and wears off quickly so you can go about your day as normal. An oral sedative is a much stronger medication that might put you to sleep! For that reason, you will need a loved one to drive you to and from your appointment.

Sedation options are a wonderful tool for every patient who suffers from dental anxiety. No matter what is causing your fear, it is important to realize that dental care is important enough to address the fear and overcome your hesitation. By taking a small pill or requesting laughing gas in the office, you can relax and maybe even come to enjoy your appointments!

Children are often afraid of the dentist too, especially if they are in pain from a dental emergency like an injury or a toothache. Laughing gas is a safe and effective sedation option for most kids. Because application is done easily through a mask, most children are able to receive the medication through their nose and relax during their dental work.
