The primary goal of sedation dentistry is to create a calm and stress-free environment for patients, enabling them to receive the necessary dental care without discomfort or anxiety. Various levels of sedation can be utilized depending on the individual's needs, ranging from mild relaxation to deep sleep. The specific techniques and medications employed may vary based on the dentist's training, the patient's medical history, and the complexity of the procedure.
Sedation dentistry, also known as sleep dentistry or dental sedation, is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on using sedative medications to help patients feel more relaxed and comfortable during dental procedures. It is particularly beneficial for individuals who experience dental anxiety or fear,
have a low pain threshold, have a strong gag reflex, or require extensive dental work.
If you experience fear, anxiety, or general discomfort at the dentist, sedation dentistry may be the right solution for you. At Agoura Hills Dental Designs, Drs. Shawn and David Matian are highly experienced in providing gentle, effective sedation options—including conscious oral sedation and nitrous oxide—so you can receive the dental care you need without fear or stress.

Drs. Matian prioritize creating a calm, relaxing environment for every patient. With sedation techniques such as conscious oral sedation and nitrous oxide (commonly known as laughing gas), they help reduce dental anxiety, ease tension, and ensure you remain comfortable and at ease throughout your visit.
