Kanellis Family Dentistry is dedicated to helping each patient feel comfortable and at ease in our care. If the thought of visiting the dentist or receiving dental care makes you nervous, if you experience sensitivity to sound or light, or if you have special healthcare needs that make it difficult to comfortably receive dental treatment, you may benefit from our customized comfort dentistry services.
Kanellis Family Dentistry offers the top sedation dentistry services near Sparks and Reno, NV, with comfort dentistry services that are always customized to each patient’s needs, anxiety levels, and health history. No matter your anxiety level, we’ll work with you to determine the safest, most appropriate level of sedation for you!
We offer the following levels of sedation:
Oral Conscious Sedation
Dr. Kanellis offers oral conscious sedation to help anxious patients relax during treatment. Taken as a pill before your procedure, this form of sedation can be used as either a mild or a moderate sedative. With mild sedation, patients feel drowsy, and with moderate sedation, patients may even fall into a light sleep.
Laughing Gas
Laughing gas, or inhalation sedation, is a form of light sedation and is typically offered to young patients or those with mild anxiety in the dental chair. Also known as nitrous oxide, this colorless, odor-free gas is administered through a comfortable breathing mask.
Dr. Kanellis controls the amount of gas throughout the duration of your procedure to ensure maximum safety and comfort. With this form of sedation, you can expect to be fully relaxed while still fully awake and able to follow instructions.
