We Understand Dental Anxiety

If dental visits make you anxious—you’re not alone. Many patients avoid the dentist due to fear, past trauma, or a sensitive gag reflex. That’s why Horizon Dental Centre offers sedation dentistry options designed to help you feel calm, in control, and completely comfortable.

What is Sedation Dentistry?

Sedation dentistry uses safe medications to reduce anxiety, increase comfort, and make longer treatments easier. You’ll feel deeply relaxed—some patients even nap!—but you’ll still be conscious and able to respond if needed.

We offer:

• Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas): Gentle, fast-acting, and wears off quickly

• Oral Sedation: A prescribed pill taken before your appointment for a deeper calm

• Local Anesthetic: To numb specific areas and ensure a pain-free experience

Our team will walk you through each option to find what’s best for you.

Who Benefits from Sedation Dentistry?

• Patients with dental anxiety or phobia

• Those with strong gag reflexes

• People undergoing longer or multiple procedures

• Kids or adults who have difficulty sitting still
