Dental Anxiety
At Davis County Dental & Orthodontics we strive to make your visit and any recommended treatment as comfortable as possible. One way to accomplish this is with nitrous oxide or laughing gas. This safe and effective method of anxiety reduction makes dental treatment a tolerable if not pleasurable experience for most patients. This includes very young children as well. In addition, for adults stronger medications can be administered in most cases to achieve “low levels of sedation” and make the experience even more comfortable for the patient. In some cases the patient may not even remember the experience! Combined with wireless headphones blocking out unpleasant sounds and watching a comedy on a 32-inch flat screen TV, some patients don’t want to leave!
