Does fear of going to the dentist keep you from getting the dental care you need? We know that for many people, going to the dentist is a very stressful experience.

What Is Dental Anxiety?

Most dental conditions are preventable. Regular visits to the dentist can help us identify potential problems early and improve your quality of life. Dental anxiety is stress or fear that can affect how people think about going to the dentist. It can cause people to delay or avoid treatment leading to worse dental conditions and increasing the need for more complex and invasive procedures.

How Can I Manage My Dental Anxiety?

One of the most effective ways to manage dental anxiety is by talking to Dr. Greene. This can help us develop a treatment plan that's specific for you. In addition to discussing your anxiety triggers, we can create an ideal treatment plan to address your particular needs using needle free sedation.

What Is Needle Free Sedation Dentistry?

At Christina Greene Family Dentistry, we're proud to offer our patients needle free sedation dentistry to help you with your anxiety.

Nitrous Oxide

Nitrous oxide, also known as "laughing gas", can help you feel better during dental treatment. A mask is placed over your face, and you breathe a mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen. You'll still be awake, but the relaxing effects will be very pleasant.

Oral Sedation

Anxiety-relieving medications can also help you relax. A single dose of these drugs is usually taken the day of or night before a scheduled dental appointment. You'll stay awake but feel drowsy and less anxious during treatment.

IV Sedation

Intravenous or IV sedation, also known as twilight sedation, is administered through a drip in the arm or hand. You'll remain conscious but won't remember much.

General Anesthesia

General anesthesia is also sometimes used for longer procedures. Under general anesthesia, you'll be completely unconscious.

Our Therapy Dog

In addition to our needle free sedation options, we also have our therapy dog, Chloe. This sweet canine is a full-bred Old English Sheepdog, and she's available to help patients feel more comfortable during their visits. If you would like to meet Chloe, just ask. She's here to help create a happy and friendly environment for everyone who enters our office.
