IV Sedation, Oral Sedation, Nitrous Oxide - Anxiety Free Dentistry
- Are you apprehensive about going to the dentist?
- Have you put off dental care for years because of dental anxieties?
- Would you enjoy having all of your dental needs taken cae of and afterwards remember very little about your visit?
You are not alone. In fact, approximately 40 million Americans avoid the dentist because of fear and anxiety, according to the Academy of General Dentistry. Many are living in the Manassas area.
Reflection Dental in Manassas is here to help you overcome your dental anxiety and regain your confidence about visiting the dentist. With Reflection Dental's personalized approach, we offer several ways to assist you in receiving treatment while remaining relaxed:
Intravenous (IV) Sedation
With IV Sedation, your appointment will be a dream and hours in the chair will feel like minutes!
This method of sedation is extremely effective for moderate to severe anxiety. An anti-anxiety medication is administered directly into your bloodstream through an intravenous line to achieve a state of “conscious sedation.” Although you will not be asleep, you will enjoy a heightened state of relaxation—and will have little memory of your procedure afterwards.
Oral Sedation
Safe, economical and convenient, this type of sedation delivers a more relaxed state than Nitrous Oxide.
Oral sedation is highly effective for mild to moderate anxiety. This type of sedation is administered with a prescribed pill by mouth about one hour before your appointment to facilitate you to drift into a complete state of relaxation so at Reflection Dental in Manassas you can have a worry-free dental experience.
Nitrous Oxide-NO2 (Laughing Gas)
This method of anxiety-free dentistry allows you to relax during your treatment, and resume your normal activities after your appointment!
Nitrous oxide is best suited for cases of mild to moderate anxiety and is the most frequently used sedation method. Nitrous oxide is administered through a demand-valve inhaler over your nose that releases gas when you inhale through your nose. You will feel the effects within minutes and these effects are completely gone within minutes of the gas being turned off after your treatment.
During your visit at Reflection Dental in Manassas we can discuss these options with you and create your personalized treatment plan for a relaxing and worry free dental care experience.
Whether you require a single filling or are looking for a complete smile makeover, anxiety-free dentistry can help you achieve optimum dental health in the most comfortable way possible.
