Sedation Dentistry

“I’ve been going to Sonora since I was young and they have the best staff and make sure you are getting the best care!”

A visit to the dentist is sometimes really stressful. We understand it. Your safety and full comfort  are our paramount. This great method helps overcome the fears. It makes the treatment comfortable, you feel relaxed and calm.  We use sedation to ensure our patients feel relaxed and calm during procedures. The dentist can offer different types:

• Oral sedation. A pill helps reduce anxiety. It maintains the ability to communicate with the specialist.
• Light sedation (inhalation). The patient remains conscious but feels relaxed.
• Nitrous Oxide Sedation (N₂O). A mild inhaled sedative that reduces anxiety while the patient remains awake, relaxed, and able to communicate.
• Intravenous sedation. A deeper form of relaxation. It is ideal for long or complex procedures.

Advantages

Why do our patients like it?

• No discomfort, even during lengthy procedures.
• Reduction of fear and anxiety before treatment.
• Multiple procedures are performed in a single visit.
• Suitable for patients with increased tooth sensitivity or a low pain threshold.

We recommend it for those with severe dental anxiety or  undergoing complex treatment. Patients with sensitive teeth or gums will also like it. Our specialists often use it when treating children.

The dentist carefully selects the method, taking into account the patient’s age, overall health, and medical history.
