Dentistry in Denver, CO

Anesthesia & Sedation

Comfort is vital to your positive, rewarding dental experience. Patients often comment that Dr. Carter gives gentle anesthetic injections, and we offer creature comforts in the dental chair, such as blankets, heated neck pillows, music, and TV.

For patients who suffer from dental anxiety, don't respond well to traditional numbing agents, need many procedures performed in one visit, we offer oral sedation. An oral sedative allows a patient to thoroughly relax during dental procedures. For sedation dentistry, you will need to arrange a ride home after your visit, because the effects can last all day. After oral sedation, most patients remember little, if anything, about their dental appointment. Dr. Carter works with a nurse anesthetist to provide IV sedation in our office, as well. Patients with high fear or anxiety, or those who want multiple or lengthy procedures completed in a single visit, often benefit from the comfortable experience IV sedation provides.

Dr. Carter and our team understand that every patient has unique fears, concerns, and situations. Please tell us about anything that worries you. We will do our best to create a positive, rewarding, relaxing dental visit for you.
