Oral Sedation

Dr. Drew MacRae can prescribe an oral sedative for you to take prior to your dental procedure. This medication comes in a pill form. It calms a patient while remaining awake for the procedure.
We require that you have an adult accompaniment to pick you up and take care of you for the rest the day. 

Nitrous Sedation

Nitrous oxide is a conscious sedative, which is administered by breathing in a mixture with oxygen through the nose. This is effective in allowing our patients with anxiety to stay calm during treatment.

Need to drive home afterwards? The affects of Nitrous sedation wear off immediately, and no accompanying adult is necessary after your treatment.

With nitrous oxide, you will still be able to communicate with Dr. Drew MacRae and his team. Once your appointment is finished, you will be given oxygen to help remove any lingering gas from your system.

The calming effects of the nitrous wear off almost as soon as it is turned off, with little to no side effects
