Relax With Confidence Through Oral Sedation
At The Crown Dental Arts, our dentists provide oral sedation in Draper, Utah, to help patients manage anxiety and feel more at ease during dental procedures. This method involves taking a prescribed medication before your visit, allowing you to stay calm and relaxed while remaining awake and responsive.
Oral sedation is especially helpful for those with moderate to severe dental anxiety, difficulty sitting through longer appointments or a strong gag reflex. Our team is here to make your experience comfortable, safe and as stress-free as possible.
What to Expect With Oral Sedation
Oral sedation allows you to feel deeply relaxed throughout your appointment without the use of needles or gas. It is taken in pill form and is closely monitored by our dental team during your visit to ensure your safety and well-being.
Some of the benefits of oral sedation include:
- Significantly reduced dental anxiety
