Sedation Dentistry

Sedation dentistry, offered by Dr. Anne Casson at Littleton Family Dental, is a patient-centric approach designed to alleviate anxiety and discomfort during dental procedures. This method involves the use of sedatives to induce a calm and relaxed state, ensuring a more positive dental experience.

Various Levels of Sedation

Sedation dentistry provides a range of options to meet individual comfort levels. From mild sedation, which keeps patients awake but relaxed, to deeper sedation or general anesthesia for those requiring a completely unaware state, our dentist and team tailor the approach to each patient’s needs.

Our sedation options include:

• General Anesthesia
• IV Sedation
• Nitrous Oxide
• Oral Conscious Sedation

Benefits for Anxious Patients

For individuals with dental anxiety or phobia, sedation dentistry offers a welcome solution. It helps manage fear and apprehension, making dental visits more tolerable and stress-free. This approach is particularly beneficial for those undergoing extensive treatments or with a history of traumatic dental experiences.

Suitability for Different Procedures

Sedation dentistry is versatile and can be applied to various dental procedures, from routine cleanings to complex treatments. Dr. Casson discusses the nature of the procedure and evaluates your medical history to determine the most suitable sedation option.

Post-Sedation Recovery and Aftercare

After the procedure, patients may experience varying levels of drowsiness. We provide post-sedation care instructions to ensure a safe recovery process.
