How does Sedation Dentistry work?

You will be given a small pill to be taken one hour prior to your dental appointment. Your companion will accompany you to the office and by the time you arrive you will be very drowsy.

When you arrive you will be escorted into our clinical room, covered with a thick, warm blanket, and placed on a monitor to watch your vital signs. ONLY after you are completely relaxed and comfortable, Dr. Nix and the experienced clinical team at Southwest Nebraska Dental Center will take care of your dental needs. 

When your treatment is completed your companion will return you home for a relaxing and comfortable day.

Does it really work?

Yes it really works! You can really be totally relaxed and comfortable through your dental appointment!

It is safe! You take a small pill before your visit, and NO intravenous tubes or needles!

You will have little or no memory of the experience and probably won't remember any sounds or smells

Complex dental treatments that often require six to eight appointments can be completed in as little as ONE visit!

You really can have great dental health and a beautiful smile, peacefully and anxiety-free, with sedation dentistry!
