Sedation Dentistry in Nanaimo

New Patients Welcome

Sedation Dentistry

We offer sedation dentistry to patients with anxiety or fear of dental procedures. A sedative medication can be prescribed in advance of your appointment to help you rest and relax before, during, and after your procedure. If you have had negative dental experiences in the past, have an anxiety disorder, or are sensitive to the sound and sensation of procedures, sedation dentistry may be an option for you.

Oral Sedation

Oral sedation is delivered through pills that are taken orally before an appointment. If you are a candidate for sedation dentistry, our dental team will prescribe the medication in advance of your procedure and give you instructions about when and how to take the pills. Oral sedation will make you feel relaxed, and sometimes drowsy. It’s important to make sure you have a ride to and from your appointment, as you will not be able to drive after you have taken the medication.
