Laughing Gas (Happy Gas)
Laughing gas (or happy gas) is one of our first options, especially for kids, when exploring options for nervous or anxious patients. It has no lasting side effects, it is safe to use on kids and as soon as it is no longer being administered it wears off immediately. Laughing gas is delivered by a small mask that is fitted over your nose. You are completely conscious during the procedure, and able to respond to requests or directions. It does however make most people feel relaxed and calm during the dental procedure. It is particularly effective on kids, and is popular due to the lower cost and short term effect of the gas.The  Navasota Dental, Tx that is conveniently located near 413 N Lsalle St, Navasota is the best option available and has affordable dentists near you.


IV Sedation (Sleep Dentistry or Twilight Sedation)

Intravenous Sedation (IV Sedation), also referred to as “Sleep Dentistry”, is a method where a sedative drug is administered via an injection to put you in a sleep-like state. This method is particularly effective for people with dental phobia or anxiety, or those who need extensive or invasive treatment and would prefer not to be “awake” throughout the procedure

The difference between IV Sedation and treatment under a general anaesthetic is that you are not actually “unconscious”, however you are in a highly relaxed, sleep-like state.

When you “wake up” from the procedure you will feel like no time has passed, you will have no memory of the procedure and will have felt no pain during the procedure, similar to treatment under a general anaesthetic 

Some of the benefits of IV Sedation are:
  • Quicker recover time than treatment under a general anaesthetic
  • In most cases you can get all of your dental treatment done in one visit, rather than spread out over days or weeks
  • You will not feel any pain throughout the procedure, not know what is happening at the time or have any memory of it
  • It is cheaper than treatment under a general anaesthetic if you do not have health insurance
General Anaesthetic
For more extensive or invasive treatment we offer treatment under a general anaesthetic in hospital. There is little restriction on age when treating patients under a general anaesthetic, so we are able to treat kids or adults. We are also able to treat people with special needs, such as physical or intellectual disabilities, and can also admit certain bariatric (obese or morbidly obese) patients who may have been declined dental treatment due to their size .

Use Your Smile to Change the World, Don't Let The World Change your Smile. dentists in Navasota Dental , TX

A Nice Smile is an answer to lots of unanswered things. Some people are lucky enough to have been born with teeth that never seem to get a cavity. However, most of us have to deal with cavities as a normal part of life. If you are not one of the cavity-free folks, you may wonder if there’s a way to get rid of cavities naturally before you see a dentist. Drinking coffee, tea, and wine or using tobacco can stain your teeth. A dental cleaning can remove built-up stains and leave you with freshly polished teeth. The result? A whiter, brighter smile! Studies have shown a connection between oral and overall health. Regular dental cleanings may help lower your risk for some diseases, like heart disease and stroke. Many medical conditions, some of them life-threatening, can be detected in their early stages by your dentist during a routine oral exam. At home, prevention may include brushing and flossing twice a day. But many strategies and oral health aids exist t
