How Does Sedation Work?

Sedation dentistry involves the use of medications to help patients relax during dental procedures. At Salo Manhattan Beach, we offer various levels of sedation to suit your comfort and treatment needs. Mild sedation, like nitrous oxide (laughing gas), is inhaled to keep you relaxed yet fully awake. Oral sedation, taken as a pill, provides a deeper sense of calm while allowing you to remain conscious. For more complex treatments or higher anxiety levels, we offer IV sedation for a deeper, more controlled level of relaxation. Throughout the process, our team closely monitors you to ensure your safety and comfort, making your dental experience stress-free.

More About Sedation

How Long Does Sedation Last?

The duration of sedation depends on the type used. Nitrous oxide wears off quickly after treatment, while oral or IV sedation may take a few hours to fully dissipate. We recommend having someone accompany you to and from your appointment if deeper sedation is used.


What Are the Benefits of Sedation Dentistry?

Sedation dentistry allows you to undergo treatments without fear or anxiety. It’s ideal for patients with dental phobia, sensitive gag reflexes, or those requiring extensive procedures. Sedation helps make the experience more comfortable and manageable.


When Is Sedation Dentistry Needed?

Sedation dentistry is recommended for patients with significant dental anxiety, those undergoing lengthy or complex procedures, or anyone with a strong gag reflex. If dental visits make you anxious or uncomfortable, sedation can help make the experience more pleasant. Contact us to discuss which sedation option is best for you.
