Sedation dentistry involves using medication to help patients feel calm, relaxed, or even lightly asleep during dental procedures. It’s ideal for those with dental anxiety, sensitive teeth, a strong gag reflex, or who need longer treatments.
Relax and receive the care you need with gentle oral sedation from your trusted Westerville dentist.
At Westerville Parkway Dental, we understand that dental anxiety can prevent people from getting the care they need. That’s why we provide gentle and effective sedation options designed to help you feel at ease—whether you’re here for a routine cleaning, a filling, or a more complex procedure. Our caring team will walk you through your options and monitor you closely throughout treatment, ensuring a safe, relaxing experience from start to finish.
We proudly serve patients from Westerville, Gahanna, Sunbury, Huber Ridge, and Minerva Park.
