Our Dentists Near Wantirna Use Happy Gas
Whether you’ve had a traumatic experience at a dental clinic in the past or have always worried about a visit to the dentist, Hanover Dental Care can help. Adults and children from Vermont South, Wantirna South, Forest Hill, Glen Waverley and Burwood East trust our dentists to provide pain-free dentistry.
Our low pain treatments are achieved with the use of effective happy gas to ensure your discomfort is kept minimal. Happy gas is a modern sedation dentistry technique that usually takes effect within two to three minutes of inhalation, and is completely safe for both children and adults.
Happy gas will put you in a calm and relaxing state before your dental treatment begins. Happy gas is inhaled through the nose via a small inhaler while your treatment is being carried out. Although you will be aware of what is taking place, you’ll be free from pain and anxiety with our mild sedation solution.
Hanover Dental Care near Wantirna has helped patients who haven’t stepped foot in a dental surgery for many years with the use of happy gas. It is also important to point out that you will be back to your normal self after the treatment is complete and perfectly fine to drive and return to your daily activities.
What is Sedation Dentistry?
Sedation dentistry in Vermont involves using a sedative such as laughing gas to put patients in a relaxed state while the dentist treats their dental concern. It’s a great way to alleviate fear and trauma in patients that might prevent them from seeking dental visits.
Conscious sedation keeps you aware and alert throughout the procedure while also keeping you relaxed and at ease. Patients that undergo sedation dentistry experience temporary drowsiness but are still able to speak and respond to any verbal prompts from their dentist. It also accelerates treatment and can save time on dental visits. Unlike other sedation techniques you are safe to drive after receiving happy gas sedation as it only works while being inhaled.
Is Sedation Dentistry Right for You?
Sedation dentistry is a safe option and doesn’t put the patient in any risk. It’s therefore a great alternative for patients that:
- Are suffering from trauma due to previous dental work or have a general fear of visiting a dentist.
- Need to undergo multiple dental treatments in a short amount of time.
- Don’t want to experience any discomfort or inconvenience during a long-lasting procedure.
- Can't keep their jaws open for longer periods of time.
- Have extremely sensitive teeth.
