What Is Dental Sedation?
Dental sedation refers to a variety of techniques used to make patients more comfortable during dental procedures. Our dentists can help determine if dental sedation is ideal for you.
At Southport Dental Clinic, we use oral sedation to try and help patients feel comfortable and at ease during their appointments. In addition to a dental sedation option, our dental team will work at your pace, take pauses if and when you need them, and provide calm reassurance.
Oral Sedation
Oral sedatives are pills or liquids prescribed by your dentist. The medication is taken orally before a dental appointment. It leaves you awake for the procedure while providing a calming effect to help you relax.
