We can help to relieve your dental anxiety without needles and intravenous tubes with oral conscious sedation. If you are having a hard time getting numb or relaxing during dental treatment, we may prescribe you anti-anxiety medication that you need to take before you arrive to the office. You will feel relaxed and drowsy throughout your procedure and will need someone to drive you home after your visit.

This continues to be a popular form of sedation for many patients and has no known side effects. You simply inhale a colorless and odorless gas which induces a feeling of euphoria. You won’t feel anything during your treatment and will still be able to respond to instruction from Dr. Krothapalli and staff members. After the gas has stopped, you will return to a normal state within a few minutes and can drive yourself home safely.
