Sedation Dentistry
Experience comfortable, stress-free dental care with sedation options designed to help you relax and feel at ease.
What is sedation dentistry?
Sedation dentistry helps patients overcome fear or anxiety during dental treatment by using safe, controlled relaxation methods. Whether you’ve had past negative experiences or simply feel nervous in the chair, sedation can make your visit calm and comfortable.
It’s ideal for patients who need multiple procedures, have a strong gag reflex, or feel anxious about dental sounds and sensations.
How we can help.
At Flowertown Periodontics, we offer several levels of sedation—from mild relaxation with nitrous oxide to deeper IV sedation—based on your needs and comfort level. Dr. Guy and Dr. Ford are trained and certified in safe sedation techniques, ensuring your experience is smooth and carefully monitored.
- Calm dental anxiety and fear
- Complete treatment in total comfort
- Enjoy a stress-free, positive experience
Our goal is to make every patient feel calm, cared for, and confident before, during, and after treatment.
