Sedation Dentistry Options at Carolina Dental Arts

In this video, Dr. Chris Powell explains the two sedation options available in his practice and how each one helps patients stay calm and comfortable during treatment.

We offer two sedation options in our practice. The first is nitrous oxide, or laughing gas. It keeps you relaxed and comfortable while you stay fully awake. The second option is oral conscious sedation. You take medication before or during the visit, which places you in a twilight state where you can rest through the procedure and often remember very little afterward. Both options make treatment easier, and many patients find them extremely helpful.
