Types of Sedation Available
At Inspire Dental of Roswell, located in Roswell, GA, Dr. Nomi strives to provide the utmost comfort for patients undergoing dental procedures through the use of sedation dentistry. Dental sedation offers a safe and reliable way to reduce dental anxiety for both adults and children.
Dr. Nomi specializes in administering three forms of sedation for patients, including oral sedatives, intravenous (IV) sedation and nitrous oxide. Oral sedative options, such as Halcion, are taken orally prior to the dental procedure and provide an overall calming effect, allowing the patient to receive dental services comfortably. IV sedation is administered intravenously and offers a deeper level of sedation that is ideal for longer and more complex procedures. Finally, nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, is mixed with oxygen and inhaled through a mask, gently calming patients and relieving any anxiety or pain throughout the procedure.
No matter what type of sedation is utilized, safety is always the number one priority. Dr. Nomi has helped countless patients receive dental services with the utmost comfort and confidence, so contact Inspire Dental of Roswell today for more information about sedation dentistry options.

Risks of Sedation Dentistry

With sedation dentistry, patients can safely reduce their anxiety during a procedure, allowing for more complex work to be completed in one sitting. Our experienced dentist, Dr. Nomi, manages the procedure, ensuring that the patient and staff are safe at all times.
Despite the benefits, there are inherent risks associated with sedation dentistry. The sedatives used to induce sleep are powerful and can trigger dangerous side effects such as hypoxia, a condition in which the body and brain is deprived of oxygen, leading to brain damage if not addressed. It is important that all patients understand the risks associated with sedation dentistry and are comfortable with them prior to undergoing any procedures.

Preparing for Sedation Dentistry
Sedation dentistry can often help patients remain relaxed and comfortable during otherwise uncomfortable dental treatments. It can also help patients with severe dental anxiety receive the care they need in one visit. Before undergoing sedation dentistry, it’s important to follow any instructions from the dentist.
Some things to consider when preparing for sedation dentistry may include not eating or drinking over a certain amount of hours before the appointment, avoiding any medications that alter the function of the heart or blood, and avoiding caffeine within the same timeframe. It’s important to discuss the impact other medications or medical conditions may have with the dentist.
