Sedation Dentistry in Bethany, OK

Relax — you're in caring hands. Our sedation options help make dental visits calm, comfortable, and fear-free.

At Bethany Dental Group, we know that dental anxiety is real — and it shouldn’t keep you from getting the care you need. Whether you’re nervous about a procedure, have a sensitive gag reflex, or simply want a stress-free experience, we offer safe and effective sedation dentistry to help you feel at ease.

Why Choose Sedation Dentistry?

Sedation helps reduce:

  • Dental anxiety or phobia
  • Fear of needles, drills, or procedures
  • Sensitive gag reflex
  • Difficulty sitting still
  • Traumatic dental memories
  • Complex or lengthy dental treatments

If you’ve been delaying care, sedation may be the solution that helps you finally move forward — comfortably and confidently.

Our Sedation Options

Oral Conscious Sedation

This type of sedation involves taking a prescribed pill before your appointment. You’ll remain awake and able to respond, but deeply relaxed. Many patients have little to no memory of the procedure.

  • Ideal for moderate to severe dental anxiety
  • Stronger effect than nitrous oxide
  • Requires someone to drive you to and from your appointment

Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas)

A gentle, fast-acting sedation delivered through a mask. Nitrous oxide helps reduce mild to moderate anxiety during treatment and wears off quickly after the appointment.

  • Safe for adults and children
  • You remain conscious and responsive
  • Effects wear off within minutes — you can drive yourself afterward

Both options can be used for everything from dental cleanings to more advanced procedures like extractions, wisdom teeth removal, and emergency care.

What to Expect with Sedation Dentistry

  1. Consultation & Review
    We’ll talk through your medical history, anxiety level, and procedure to determine the best sedation type for your needs.
  2. Safe, Monitored Sedation
    During treatment, we monitor your vital signs closely to ensure your safety and comfort at every step.
  3. Smooth Recovery
