About Sedation Dentistry
As many as 15% of Americans have some degree of dental phobias so it is no surprise that so many patients are apprehensive about undergoing dental care for fear of pain. NobelPerio in Agawam, MA and Enfield, CT are proud to offer sedation dentistry to help your experience at our facilities be as positive, relaxing, and comfortable as possible. At your next visit to our facility, we encourage you to discuss sedation dentistry with Dr. Ramirez so that we can help choose a sedation method that meets your needs and keeps you relaxed. We offer a few safe and effective options at our state-of-the-art facilities.
Sedation Options
Sedation dentistry is an excellent option for patients who are nervous or anxious about undergoing necessary dental treatment. The practice of sedation dentistry involves using a sedative medication to calm and relax the patient during treatment. NobelPerio offers a few options, which will be chosen according to your individual needs and preferences:
- Nitrous oxide – Often called laughing gas, nitrous oxide is a sedative gas and oxygen solution that is simply inhaled prior to and during treatment. This mild form of sedation wears off within minutes of stopping the flow of gas.
- Oral sedation – Or oral-conscious sedation, involves taking an oral medication prior to your appointment. This medication will leave you calm and relaxed but alert and able to respond to simple commands.
- IV sedation – For this sedation type, medication is intravenously administered, offering fast and effective management of discomfort or anxiety. While IV sedation is considered conscious sedation, you may even drift off to sleep during treatment due to extreme comfort and relaxation.
Your Safety is Our Priority
Our goal is to help you remain comfortable and at ease during treatment while you remain safe at all times. Our team of dentists and experienced dental professionals are highly trained and equipped with advanced knowledge in order to administer sedation in a safe and effective manner. Your vital signs and response to sedation will be closely monitored during your treatment to ensure optimal safety. If you have chosen IV or oral sedation, you will need to arrange for a trusted friend or family member to drive you to and from your appointment.
NobelPerio Reviews
They do amazing work. Gentle with me. I'm high anxiety. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who has anxiety.
Smiley faces and great attitude.
I was a little worried going in quite frankly I use comments like I’d rather have a root canal than to have a meeting with that organization. So my expectations were set exactly what they should be it was an hour procedure but it only took 38 minutes I know what the hell were you doing figuring out the time? I hate it when that guy talks to me. Regardless I wish I could remember the name of this very personable young lady who made me relax I did my breathing to get better numbers anyway very nice the came the man I hat injected with a huge long needle but the nova came worked well I’m now 8 11 days from the visit I have to say it was painless ways and best of all I think it’s gonna be an improvement the doctor Mario was very good they were organized and thorough my scripts were ready on time as I had to start one 2 days before I went there I was surprised that the pain killers went so fast so overall a great experience good polit and organized organization I will say I had a 930aM procedure so it was early they were still caffeinated good place clean nice people good work it’s still not finished but I feel great
Staff was professional and efficient in their purpose
My wife and I were promptly taken care of at our arrival in the office. Linda, is by far the most excellent hygienist I have ever come across. She is very thorough and answered all of our concerns.
