At Admiralty Dental Center, we understand that dental visits can be stressful for some patients. That's why we offer sedation dentistry—a safe and effective way to help you relax and feel comfortable during your dental procedures.

Sedation dentistry involves the use of medication to help you relax during dental treatments. Whether you're anxious about a routine cleaning or need extensive dental work, sedation can make your experience more pleasant. The level of sedation can vary, allowing you to remain fully awake or drift into a deep sleep, depending on your needs.

Services We Offer

What are the benefits?

We provide various levels of sedation to cater to your comfort:

Minimal Sedation

With minimal sedation, you’ll feel calm and relaxed but will remain awake throughout the procedure. This is often administered via inhaled sedation (nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas).

Moderate Sedation (Conscious Sedation)

This level of sedation will make you drowsy, and you may not remember much of the procedure. It’s typically administered through oral medication or IV sedation.

Deep Sedation

You’ll be on the edge of consciousness but can still be awakened if necessary. This is used for more complex procedures.

General Anesthesia

For patients requiring it, general anesthesia will keep you completely unconscious during your procedure.
