SEDATION + DENTAL IMPLANTS (REPLACEMENT TEETH) = A WINNING COMBINATION

Many People Choose Sedation When They Are Considering Dental Implants

Here are some of the dental implant procedures we offer.

Fully-Restored Implants for One or More Missing Teeth

Whether you’re missing one or more teeth, dental implants are a great solution for you. Dental implants look and function like natural teeth.

Snap-On Denture Supported by Implants

Snap-on dentures, also called implant-supported dentures or over-dentures, are held in place not just by the gums, but by implants that are secured in the jawbone.

All-on-Four & All-on-Six

(Teeth in a Day)

Non-removable dentures – are basically denture devices that consist of a row of prosthetic teeth connected to a framework that is held in position by dental implants.

Experience Stress-Free Dental Visits with Sedation Dentistry

No more dental anxiety or fear

Relax during procedures – no discomfort or pain

Safe, monitored sedation options tailored to you

Your Sedation Options

Whether you need mild relaxation or full sedation, we provide Nitrous Oxide, Oral Sedative, Conscious IV Sedation, and Deep Sedation (IV) to ensure your comfort.

Mild: Nitrous Oxide

It’s informally called “laughing gas” because it has a euphoric effect (making some people get the giggles). Ideal for mild anxiety.

Moderate: Oral Sedative

A simple pill can help you feel deeply relaxed while remaining awake but drowsy. Ideal for mild to moderate dental anxiety.

Moderate: Conscious IV

Administered through a vein for a deeper level of relaxation. You’ll stay conscious but may not remember the procedure.

Deep Sedation (IV)*

For patients who prefer to be completely asleep, deep sedation is the best option. Recommended for complex procedures or severe anxiety.

*Please Note: All IV Sedation is administered by a Dental Anesthesiologist.

Who Can Benefit from Sedation Dentistry?

Sedation is ideal for patients who:

Experience severe dental anxiety or phobia

Have a sensitive gag reflex

Need multiple procedures in one visit

Have difficulty sitting still for long periods

Are undergoing complex or lengthy dental work

THIS IS POSSIBLE FOR YOU TOO

What Our Patients Say

Bernie's Story

"...You guys just did a wonderful job
and it really shows. And it's something that puts you at ease, when you have an environment where you know you're gonna be taken care of properly. And the end results are that I have teeth again!"

Angie's Story

"I've always had dental anxiety I would put off coming to the dentist at all costs. I started to experience some pain, I reached out trying to avoid coming here but ultimately knew it was the right thing to do."

Maureen's Story

"The feel so good ...
I've never had a full set of teeth in my mouth since I was 12 years old so it feels very strange but I'm really excited and I love how it looks!"

FAQs About Sedation Dentistry

Frequently Asked Questions

Is sedation dentistry safe?

Yes! Our sedation options are carefully administered by trained professionals, ensuring your safety and comfort.

Oral Sedation: $425 - Ask us for details

Conscious IV Sedation: $1,000 for the first hour of procedure

Insurance coverage may vary, so we recommend checking with your provider.

Will I be asleep during the procedure?

It depends on the sedation method. Oral and Conscious IV sedation keep you conscious but relaxed, while Deep IV Sedation puts you completely to sleep.

How long does sedation last?

The effects depend on the type of sedation. Oral sedation lasts several hours, IV sedation wears off gradually, and general anesthesia requires recovery time.

Can I drive myself home after?

For oral and IV sedation, you’ll need someone to drive you home. With general anesthesia, we recommend having someone stay with you for a few hours post-procedure.

Which insurances do you accept?

Please be aware that our office does not accept Medicaid.

Utilizing a sophisticated computer system, we maintain a database of over 1,200 insurance plans, allowing us to track payment schedules for many of them. During each visit, our dedicated staff will provide you with an insurance coverage estimate, and unless prior arrangements have been established, we kindly ask for payment of the difference at that time. It’s essential to acknowledge that this is solely an estimate, and any outstanding balances post-insurance claim settlements will be promptly billed to you or charged to your credit card for your convenience.

Don’t have dental insurance? No problem! We have an amazing Membership Club to help offset the costs of treatment or we accept cash, most credit cards and have third party financing options available.
