Some people are so afraid of visiting the dentist that they skip their biannual dental checkups, which often leads to serious oral health problems. If fear and anxiety are interfering with your ability to get dental care, Dr. Nguyen has a solution: relaxing sedation dentistry. With nitrous oxide or oral conscious sedation, we can help you stay calm and comfortable the entire time your teeth are being treated. When you call us to schedule an appointment, be sure to ask about our options for sedation dentistry.

WHY CHOOSE HEALTHY CROWNS DENTISTRY FOR SEDATION DENTISTRY?
- HIGHLY RELAXING ORAL CONSCIOUS SEDATION
- QUICK, CONVENIENT NITROUS OXIDE SEDATION
- GENTLE, PATIENT-CENTERED DENTAL CARE
ORAL CONSCIOUS SEDATION
Thanks to oral conscious sedation, putting your dental fears to rest is as easy as swallowing a pill. You’ll usually take the sedative about an hour before your procedure. During the actual treatment, you’ll remain awake and capable of following our instructions, but you’ll be so relaxed that time will seem to pass much faster, and you won’t be bothered by anything happening around you. Remember to make arrangements to have someone else take you home once your treatment is complete.
NITROUS OXIDE SEDATION
When you’re only a little nervous about your dental visit, nitrous oxide can be enough to help you have a more positive experience. You’ll inhale the sedative through a small nasal mask; in just a few minutes, you’ll experience a warm, happy feeling, and you’ll be much more comfortable with what’s happening. Once you stop breathing in nitrous oxide, it will only take a few minutes for you to return to normal, so you can plan on driving yourself home or returning to work right after your appointment.
