Sedation Dentistry

Avoid Pain & Anxiety Through Sedation Dentistry

We have a variety of options to match your individual needs. If you experience anxiety or dental phobia, our team may suggest laughing gas to keep you calm and relaxed. You’ll be awake and able to respond to our guidance throughout your procedure, but you’ll feel a deep-seated sense of calm and euphoria. Laughing gas wears off quickly, so you’ll still be able to drive yourself home and enjoy the rest of your day!

Modern Day Dental is dedicated to providing safe, compassionate, high-level care to everyone in Eden Prairie. If you’re nervous about being sedated, we understand! However, Sedation Dentistry can help to genuinely improve your patient experience.

The benefits of Sedation Dentistry include:

• Eliminate pain and discomfort – Sedation eliminates any risk of pain or discomfort during your appointment, so it’s a perfect choice if you have dental anxiety or are worried about an upcoming surgery or procedure.
• Stay comfortable for long procedures – If you have difficulty sitting still for long periods of time, Sedation Dentistry can help you stay comfortable. This can be especially helpful for you if you are having multiple or complex oral surgeries.
• Keep your routine going with laughing gas – Laughing gas is a very mild sedative that wears off in about 5 minutes without any major side effects. As soon as you’re done with your appointment, you can get back to your normal routine.

Is Sedation Dentistry Right For You?

If you have dental anxiety that prevents you from seeing the dentist regularly or if you’re nervous about a procedure such as a tooth extraction, Sedation Dentistry can help you feel comfortable throughout your treatment. It can even help suppress your gag reflex or assuage a fear of needles, allowing you to feel calm and comfortable while our team works on your smile!

As long as you are healthy and not taking medication that may interfere with our sedation options, Modern Day Dental is happy to provide you with professional Sedation Dentistry services. From children to adults, we’re here to help make Eden Prairie’s smiles brighter.

Because we value your safety, we ask that you share a complete medical history with us prior to sedation. Issues such as chronic respiratory disease, sleep apnea, allergies to barbiturate medications, and other similar conditions may prevent you from being sedated. We also do not recommend Sedation Dentistry for patients at any stage of pregnancy.

To make sure you’re a good candidate for sedation, schedule a consultation with Modern Day Dental. We are conveniently located in Eden Prairie, near Chanhassen and Shakopee!
