At Morningside Dental Care, Dr. Donna Williams is certified to provide patients in New York, NY with sedation options that calm them throughout their appointment. Schedule an appointment with our dedicated staff today to see how we can make your dental experience a more enjoyable one.
Creating a Calming Environment
Available Sedation Options
Dr. Williams is a certified administer of nitrous oxide so patients can feel relaxed and comfortable throughout their procedure. Also referred to as laughing gas, nitrous oxide safely sedates patients, creating a worry-free treatment experience. Those sedated with nitrous remain awake, but are also numbed enough that there is minimal discomfort throughout the process.
For many people, just getting themselves to the dentist can be worrisome. For those who suffer from dental anxiety, we provide oral conscious sedation in pill form that can be taken an hour before their appointment. Oral sedation methods help calm nerves and create a better opportunity for patients to relax. With either sedation option, our dentist can complete a great deal of your dental work in one visit, saving you the inconvenience of multiple visits, since the sedative keeps you relaxed over a longer period of time.
