Anesthesia Options


the comfort and safety of our patients comes first. There are three main choices for anesthesia, including local anesthesia, nitrous oxide or IV sedation. During your consultation, our surgeons will help you decide which type of anesthesia is right for you!

Local Anesthesia


Local anesthesia is commonly used for minor procedures and provides numbness in a targeted area. The patient remains awake and the feelings of discomfort are eliminated.

Nitrous Oxide


Nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas, is a mild sedative that the patient inhales to reduce anxiety. Used in conjunction with local anesthesia, it does not cause the patient to lose consciousness.

IV Sedation


IV sedation is commonly used for more complex surgical procedures or for patients with high dental anxiety. This type of anesthesia, administered through the vein, induces a state of unconsciousness. The patient is unaware of the procedure being performed.
