Sedation Dentistry

Nearly 30% of people experience fear of the dentist. Dr. Polansky provides a refuge for anxious patients. He offers soothing sedation to eliminate anxiety and help patients achieve total relaxation.

Dental anxiety is a very real condition, and a common one. If you suffer from dental phobia, tell us. We can help. Dr. Polansky will discuss your concerns with you and help you decide on a sedation method for your dental work. He may recommend nitrous oxide or oral sedation.

Nitrous Oxide

If you choose nitrous oxide, you’ll breathe this safe, effective gas through a nasal mask during your dental treatments. Patients report feeling safe, warm, and comfortable while inhaling nitrous, and they’re able to resume normal activities as soon as they leave our Cherry Hill, NJ dental office.

Oral Sedation

Oral sedation involves taking a sedative in pill form prior to a dental appointment in order to enter a state of total mental and physical relaxation. During your oral sedation appointment, you’ll be able to converse with the doctor and team, but you’ll feel nothing but peacefulness. Your sedation will wear off gradually following treatment, and you’ll have no memory of the details of your visit. Most likely, you’ll return to your regular routine the evening of your sedation dentistry appointment.
