Sedation dentistry can make treatment feel more manageable for anxious patients, complex procedures, and visits that require extra support.
Calmer dental visits
We take dental anxiety seriously. Before recommending sedation, we talk through your concerns, health history, procedure needs, and the level of support that is appropriate.
Uptown Houston Smiles offers nitrous oxide and intravenous (IV) sedation options for selected patients and procedures.
Who may benefit
- Patients with dental fear or a strong gag reflex.
- Patients who need longer or more involved treatment.
- Patients with special needs who need additional help completing care comfortably.
