At Flawless Smile Dentistry, we work hard to create a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere where anxious and fearful patients can feel right at home.

WHY CHOOSE SEDATION DENTISTRY?

Don’t let your dental anxiety keep you from necessary dental treatment. Our office provides fear-free sedation dentistry to help our patients feel more relaxed during their treatments. You shouldn’t be afraid to come to the dentist when you need a dental procedure of some sort.

Dental sedation also helps with pain management. If you need a difficult procedure or a treatment that might be more painful, sedation dentistry can help you have a more pleasant dental experience by relaxing your muscles. Easing this tension can soothe both your body and mind for a better dental experience.

      Each visit with Flawless Smile is so pleasant. The front office staffers all greet me with a friendly “Hello” and smile. I have never waited more than 5 or 10 minutes to get taken back to the dental area by another smiling staff member. I am a different person because of my treatment at Flawless Smile. Different meaning I’m no longer depressed because I don’t have to hide my smile every minute of the day. It’s amazing how being able to smile changes every aspect of my life.

        I have dentures that are screwed in and I was having to go to either Kansas City or Oklahoma City from Tulsa to get them worked on fallstona was able to put these in and keep them clean for me and it's a lot closer than a two or four hour drive. Everyone I've met at the staff and the doctor is great I would recommend this especially if you're looking for dentures.

          I really felt that all employees/staff were more than good to me. Made me feel like family almost and really seemed to care. They definitely wanted me to get the best service possible and I'm excited to go back again. My next appointment will be getting 7 teeth pulled and instead of feeling nervous as I usually do, I feel completely ready to get it done and have total faith in the dentist there to do good work. I know I'm in good hands!

            LAUGHING GAS

            We offer laughing gas sedation dentistry as the most simple way to help patients feel more relaxed. This mild sedative can safely relieve dental anxiety for patients of all ages.

            You’ll inhale the gas through a mask that fits over the nose, and the amount can be adjusted for maximum comfort. Within minutes, the calming effects should begin.

            One key benefit of laughing gas is that it wears off just as quickly as it begins. Once you stop breathing in laughing gas, you should not feel any lingering effects. This means patients will be capable of returning to work and even driving themselves home safely.

            ORAL CONSCIOUS SEDATION

            At Flawless Smile Dentistry, we provide oral conscious sedation for our patients with severe dental anxiety. There are a number of reasons besides fear that make this sedation method the right choice.

            Oral sedation (medication) is typically the right choice for patients who:

            We will prescribe the sedative and provide detailed instructions for when to take it prior to your appointment.

            Once you arrive, our team members will help you become comfortable in the treatment chair before your procedure begins. Patients should feel deeply at ease throughout the process. Many patients do not even remember fine details about their appointment once it ends.

            For safety reasons, those patients who choose oral sedation will need a trusted escort to bring them to our practice and take them home afterwards.

            DON’T PUT YOUR TREATMENT ON HOLD!

            We offer dental sedation because we want you to get the treatment you need— without any fear or dental anxiety. Our experienced team can help you feel welcome and comfortable while visiting our office. We may use laughing gas or oral conscious sedation, depending on your needs.

            Do not skip another necessary dental appointment! Ask our staff about sedation dentistry, so you can get the care you need along with peace of mind!

            FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT SEDATION DENTISTRY

            Your dentist reviews your medical history, current medications, and any health conditions before choosing a sedation method. Factors such as blood pressure, heart rate, breathing patterns, and previous reactions to anesthesia help determine whether nitrous oxide or oral sedation is a safe option. This careful evaluation ensures you receive the level of sedation that supports your comfort while protecting your overall health.
            Most patients describe nitrous oxide as a light, calming sensation that reduces dental anxiety while keeping them fully awake. Oral conscious sedation creates a deeper state of relaxation, often described as twilight sleep, where you remain responsive but unaware of the details of the dental procedure. Both sedation options help you remain comfortable for long periods of time, especially during complex procedures or multiple treatments in one visit.
            Yes. Patients with a sensitive gag reflex often benefit from sedation dentistry. Nitrous oxide and oral sedation help relax the muscles in the throat and reduce the reflex response, allowing your dentist to complete necessary dental work more efficiently. Sedation can also help patients who have difficulty sitting still or who experience discomfort when lying back in the dental chair.
            Oral sedation produces moderate sedation that usually lasts several hours. Although you may feel awake, your reflexes and judgment remain affected for the rest of the day. Patients should avoid driving, returning to work, or engaging in normal activities until the effects of the medication have worn off completely. This is why a trusted escort is required to accompany you to and from your appointment.
            Sedation dentistry can support any dental appointment when anxiety, medical conditions, or a strong gag reflex make treatment challenging. While many patients use sedation for root canal treatment, oral surgery, or complex dental work, mild sedation such as nitrous oxide can also be helpful during a routine cleaning. Your dentist will recommend the best choice based on your anxiety level, the length of the visit, and your overall oral health needs.
