Sedation Options
Our patient’s comfort is very important to us.
Hence we have the latest and safest equipment in 
sedation dentistry. We have the following options:
  • Oral Sedation
This option involves taking oral medication to help you feel relaxed. We will schedule time in the office for the
medication to be administered and to take effect.
  • Laughing gas
Also called Nitrous Oxide is inhaled through the nose and will help you relax and remain calm.
  • IV Sedation
This type of sedation puts you in a sleep-like state but it’s not like general anesthesia because it does not make you unconscious. You will still breathe on your own, and you will still have control on your reflexes.

We know that the dentist can be a scary place for people.
We want to change that for you! 

We routinely implement a variety of safe and effective practices to reduce pain and anxiety.  These services include nitrous oxide sedation, oral sedation, local anesthetics, and pain relief medications.



Sedation with Nitrous Oxide
Nitrous Oxide (known to many as laughing gas) is both safe and highly effective in preventing pain and anxiety during dental procedures. Here at Access Dental Centre, we use Nitrous Oxide for all eligible pediatric and adult populations.

Nitrous Oxide acts through inhalation and is administered by mask. This is ideal for patients who have a fear of needles! Once your mask is on, our team will closely monitor you or your child throughout your procedure to ensure you are comfortable and relaxed. 

People often experience a euphoric state, while inhaling the Nitrous Oxide. You might even find some things to be a little extra funny. All you have to do is sit back, relax, and go to your happy place!

Ask us today if Nitrous Oxide is right for you!

Oral Sedation
If Nitrous Oxide is not right for you, your dentist may provide you will oral sedation. With oral sedation, you will take a special medication before your procedure. This mediation will make you feel sleepy and relaxed throughout your appointment. 

Oral sedation is often paired with local anesthetic to enhance your comfort, keep scrolling to learn more!​
Local Anesthetic 
During your procedure, your dentist may choose to use a local anesthetic. Local anesthetic is often referred to as “numbing” because it blocks sensory nerve impulses, making your mouth feel numb. Local anesthetic may be applied topically (applied onto the tissue using a gel or cream) or it may be injected. Our dentists use both forms of local anesthetic. 

For your procedure, our team will first numb the procedure area with a gel. After you are numb, your dentist will inject anesthetic. You may feel a quick pinch while the anesthetic is injected but after, the anesthetic acts for hours to prevent pain in the affected area.
