Dental Local Anesthesia

Our dentist will help you relax during your procedure and ensure that you go through it safe and pain-free.
Before a dental procedure takes place, we’ll give you an anesthesia to numb any pain. This is the most common approach is local anesthesia. Which is injected in the area where the treatment will be performed. When we use local anesthesia, you are completely conscious and aware of the course of action that is taking place. We regularly provide local anesthesia if you’re undergoing simple procedures like tooth extraction or filling a tooth.
The process is as follows:

• The area will be swabbed with a gel to numb the surface
• The anesthetic will be injected into your cheek or gum
• Finally, the dental procedure with be preformed
• After the procedure, the anesthesia will wear off within 3 to 4 hours

Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas): Another Great Option

Nitrous Oxide is offered in addition to options above. You’ll feel relaxed and free of anxiety while still being awake during the procedure. The effects of the gas are fast acting, and are effective only while you are breathing it. The effects will start, and leave within minutes. You will be able to drive home or to work right away.

• Light Sedation — You’ll feel relaxed and will still be awake during the procedure. You may be somewhat tired for the remainder of the day.
• Moderate Sedation — You will feel drowsy and there will be a decrease in motor skills; you may even fall asleep during the procedure but can easily be awakened when we finish.
