Experience Optimal Comfort
Experience Gentle Dental Care with Our Expert Sedation Dentistry Services – Your Comfort is Our Priority!
Expert Sedation Specialists
Westermeier Martin Dental Care was among the first in New York State certified to offer sedation services. Recognizing the common stress associated with dental visits, our team provides three types of trusted sedation to help patients feel calm, relaxed, and at ease while in our care.
Sedation dentistry can be particularly beneficial for individuals with dental anxiety, a low pain threshold, or those undergoing complex and lengthy procedures. Our careful analysis of anxiety levels, procedure duration, health history, and personal preferences always guides the administration of sedative medications.
Ensuring Comfort and Safety for Anxiety-Free Dental Care
Trusted Sedation Options, Tailored to Your Individual Needs for a Stress-Free Dental Experience.
Nitrous Oxide
- Also known as "laughing gas," Nitrous Oxide is available to all patients upon request. Our goal is to create a dental practice where visits are enjoyable, and Nitrous Oxide helps make dental appointments more tolerable for people with anxiety. Nitrous Oxide is administered through a mask over the nose and the effects wear off quickly, allowing patients to drive themselves to and from their appointment.
Oral Sedation
- Oral Sedation helps relax patients who are anxious about their dental procedures. It involves an oral medication taken before the appointment with additional doses given if needed after the dentist assesses the patient's sedation level.
IV Sedation and General Anesthesia
- With IV sedation, a medication is administered through a vein in your arm or hand. This allows the medication to work quickly and effectively to feel deeply relaxed and calm. You might even doze off during the procedure. The great thing about IV sedation is that it can be adjusted throughout the procedure to ensure you're as comfortable as possible. Afterward, the medication wears off fairly quickly, but you might feel a little groggy or tired for a short time.
