Enjoy a Stress and Anxiety-Free Dental Experience.

Laughing gas (nitrous oxide) is the primary sedation option available to ensure your comfort during dental procedures at our practice. This gentle form of sedation can be personalized to meet your needs and is administered under the expert guidance of your dentist or specialist. The specific approach to sedation will be tailored to your individualized treatment plan and personal requirements.

Local Freezing

This trusted method is well-known to all. We take the time to gently numb the area and administer a precise local anesthetic injection, causing a specific section of your mouth to become temporarily numb. You might sense some pressure, but you won’t experience any pain.

 

Sedation

Our practice exclusively provides minimal sedation through the use of laughing gas. Through the administration of prescription medication or laughing gas, we achieve light to moderate sedation. This approach ensures you remain fully conscious while experiencing a profound state of relaxation. Often, this method of sedation is complemented by local anesthesia to enhance your comfort during the procedure.

The Benefits Of Dental Sedation

Sedation offers valuable solutions that enable us to cater to patients from diverse backgrounds, each with unique challenges to address. Here are some of the advantages of opting for sedation dentistry:

Overcoming Dental Anxiety

At times, the anxiety and apprehension leading up to a dental procedure can be more distressing than the treatment itself. Your dental anxiety should never be a barrier to receiving the necessary care. Whether you experience mild or severe dental anxiety that’s preventing you from seeking treatment, please don’t hesitate to communicate with us. We are here to provide assistance and support.

Make Time Fly By

During lengthy procedures that require you to remain in the chair with your mouth open for an extended duration, sedation ensures your relaxation and comfort. The procedure will conclude swiftly, and you’ll hardly notice the passage of time.

Tailored for Your Personal Needs

Do you have a sensitive gag reflex? Are you dealing with chronic restlessness or restless leg syndrome? Sedation can be immensely beneficial in a wide range of scenarios, ensuring that dental treatment remains accessible to everyone.

Contact us today

to schedule an initial consultation & exam.

Your consultation will include an examination of everything from your teeth, gums and soft tissues to the shape and condition of your bite. Generally, we want to see how your whole mouth looks and functions. Before we plan your treatment we want to know everything about the health and aesthetic of your smile, and, most importantly, what you want to achieve so we can help you get there.

Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely! Our minimal sedation with laughing gas is an excellent option for patients with dental anxiety, as it helps you stay relaxed and at ease during your treatment.

Local anesthesia (local freezing) can be very effective for many procedures, but for more complex or extended treatments, we recommend discussing additional options like minimal sedation with laughing gas to enhance your comfort.

We evaluate each patient individually to determine the most suitable sedation option. If you have concerns about comfort or dental anxiety, please let us know during your consultation so we can discuss the best approach for you.

With minimal sedation using laughing gas, you’ll remain conscious but relaxed during the procedure. Afterward, the effects wear off quickly, allowing you to resume your daily activities without any lingering sedation effects.

Generally, minimal sedation with laughing gas can be used safely for patients of various ages, but it’s important to discuss your specific needs and concerns with our dental team to ensure it’s the right option for you or your family members.

Moved here from Toronto several years ago and I must say the dental equipments are at par, if not better. Level of service is phenomenal. Shout out to Hygienist Holly, who is amazing at what she does. Has soft and gentle touch when working on your teeth, with matching good singing voice to make you forget you’re sitting on a dental chair. Good Job!

From the time I was a child, I have never liked visiting the dentist. Although I still cannot say I "enjoy" it, the team at Brighton Dental Centre has turned my dental experiences and outlook around. From the skilled dentists to the friendly, efficient support staff, you feel well cared for from start to finish. On my first visit I was impressed with the bright and modern space transformation and the modern technology used in every procedure. Costs are clearly laid out and relayed before your visit so there are no surprises. All of the staff are very kind and strive to make your appointment run smoothly and on time. If you are looking for a new dentist, as I was, you won't find a better place to go. I highly recommend Brighton Dental Centre.
