Sedation Dentistry

Sedation for Anxiety in Spokane

Dental anxiety keeps a lot of Spokane patients from getting the care they need. Sedation makes even long emergency visits feel short, calm, and painless.

Serving Greater Spokane

Anxious Spokane patients from Downtown to Spokane Valley choose us because sedation is a standard offering, not an add-on.

What to expect

We offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral conscious sedation, and IV sedation. Your dentist recommends the right option based on the procedure and how anxious you feel.

Signs you should come in

  • You've avoided the dentist for years
  • A strong gag reflex
  • Fear of needles or drills
  • Sensitive teeth that make cleanings hard
  • Long or complex emergency procedures
  • Past traumatic dental experiences
