Sedation dentistry uses safe medications to help patients relax during dental procedures. It is ideal for patients who experience dental anxiety, have sensitive teeth, or require longer treatments.
At O'Connor Dental Care, our team carefully evaluates your needs and medical history before recommending the most appropriate form of sedation. Our goal is to ensure that every patient feels calm, comfortable, and confident throughout their dental visit.
Sedation dentistry allows many patients who previously avoided dental care to receive important treatments in a stress-free environment.


Sedation dentistry can be helpful for many patients, including those who:
• Experience dental anxiety or fear
• Have a strong gag reflex
• Have difficulty sitting for long procedures
• Need multiple treatments in one visit
• Have sensitive teeth
• Had negative dental experiences in the past
With sedation dentistry, patients can feel more relaxed and comfortable while receiving essential dental care.
Depending on your needs, different types of dental sedation may be recommended:
Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas)
A mild sedative inhaled through a small mask that helps patients feel calm during treatment.
Oral Sedation
Medication taken before the appointment to reduce anxiety and help you feel relaxed.
Our dental team will discuss the safest and most appropriate sedation option for your specific treatment and comfort level.

If dental anxiety has prevented you from seeking care, sedation dentistry at O'Connor Dental Care can help you feel comfortable during your visit.
