Your Comfort through a Range of Ways to Relax
We understand that some patients have intense anxiety about dental treatments. Whether it is the shot, the drilling or the procedure itself, we can relieve your fear with ways to provide relaxation.
We offer nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, which is a safe and effective way to make you feel relaxed with minimal side effects. First, your vital signs will be monitored. Then you will receive a comfortable nose piece which will allow you to keep your mouth open comfortably. During the procedure, you will never be left alone, and you’ll be able to communicate while still feeling in control. When finished, the nitrous oxide wears off quickly allowing you to feel normal the rest of your day.
We also offer a medication in the form of a pill, like Valium, which you take 1 hour before your visit. The pill can allow you to reach a very relaxed state, but you can still respond to questions. Your vital signs will be monitored, and after treatment is complete, you have someone drive you home and stay with you until the medication gently wears off.
The NuCalm™ Way
NuCalm™ therapy is another way to provide stress and anxiety relief without medication. NuCalm™ is a patented, FDA-approved system designed to help your mind and body relax naturally within minutes. It uses a 3-part system utilizing neuroacoustic software, a biosignal processing disc, and complete light blocking eyewear to induce a state of relaxation.
