Sedation Dentistry in Edinburg, TX – Comfortable & Anxiety-Free Dental Care

Our sedation services are designed for anxious patients, complex treatments, and surgical care requiring optimal comfort and cooperation.
Our Sedation Dentistry Options
We provide multiple levels of sedation, carefully selected based on each patient’s medical history, anxiety level, and procedure complexity.
Deep IV Sedation
Deep IV sedation is ideal for patients undergoing complex surgical procedures or those with significant dental anxiety. This form of sedation allows patients to remain deeply relaxed while being continuously monitored throughout treatment.
Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas) Sedation
Nitrous oxide sedation is a mild, fast-acting option for patients who prefer to remain awake but relaxed during dental procedures. The effects wear off quickly, allowing most patients to resume normal activities the same day.

Will I be asleep during sedation?
It depends on the type of sedation. Nitrous oxide allows patients to remain awake and relaxed, while deep IV sedation places patients in a deeply relaxed state.
