Dental Sedation for Children in Denver and Aurora, CO

Home » Services » Dental Sedation

If your dentist has suggested dental sedation for your child, safety will be your top consideration. Dentists for children often recommend sedation for long and complex procedures, and for young and nervous patients. Typically, sedation is considered very safe. Knowing the facts beforehand, you’ll be able to reduce your child’s stress levels before the procedure.

There are many types of sedation that may be used for your child. Laughing gas is the most commonly used alongside intravenous sedation. Laughing gas, or nitrous oxide, will also help your child remain calm. A mask will be used to deliver a mixture of oxygen and laughing gas. Within 5 minutes, your child will relax. Following the procedure, your child will be given pure oxygen to clear any remaining laughing gas out of their system.

Prior to their appointment, you should restrict your child’s food and drink intake based on your dentist’s suggestions.
