Experience Comfortable, Virtually Pain-Free Sedation Dentistry
Take Fear And Anxiety Out Of Dental Visits
Thousands of people experience dental fear or anxiety, but we believe this common condition shouldn’t stop you or any member of your family from receiving the dental care you need. If you frequently avoid dental appointments, you may be putting your oral and overall health at risk.
Our team is pleased to offer sedation dentistry for convenient and comfortable dental care. Sedation is often an ideal solution for both routine treatments and complex cases.
Take Advantage of Our Sedation Dentistry Options
Just as there are different levels of dental fear or anxiety, there are various levels of sedation dentistry to meet your unique needs, depending on your treatment plan.

Local Anesthetic
With a local anesthetic, a medication is injected into the gum tissues of the specific area of the mouth being worked on. When it takes effect, your cheeks, chin and tongue may feel heavy, which means the anesthetic is working to block the nerve signals that trigger the pain response. The result is a virtually pain-free dental procedure.

Nitrous Oxide Sedation
Nitrous oxide sedation, or “laughing gas,” is a heavier sedation dentistry option typically recommended for more complex cases. The effects are only felt for the duration of your treatment, and Dr. Givens has control over your level of comfort the entire time, making it both safe and effective.

Conscious Sedation
By using both IV sedation and oral medication, Drs. Britt and Givens can provide an extremely relaxing and comfortable procedure. Conscious sedation is an ideal solution to help reduce anxiety or accomplish more work in a single visit. Although patients remain awake, we advise having a companion take you home following treatment.




Redefining Personalized, Comfortable Care
Sedation dentistry provides invaluable support to individuals struggling with dental fear and anxiety, promoting a more positive dental experience and allowing you to prioritize your oral health without stress. By alleviating anxiety, sedation dentistry helps you overcome the hurdle of missed appointments, ensuring you can consistently attend crucial dental visits.
Sedation dentistry promotes relaxation and comfort during procedures, transforming what may have been daunting experiences into calming ones. With the assistance of sedation dentistry here at Horizon Dental Partners, you can maintain regular dental check-ups and treatments, safeguarding your oral health and overall well-being without compromising your comfort or peace of mind.
