Leading Edge Dental is proud to offer a range of anesthesia and sedation options to help make your visit as comfortable as possible.

The most common option is local anesthesia, which numbs a specific area of the mouth by temporarily blocking nerve signals. We typically apply a topical anesthetic first to gently numb the surface before administering the local anesthetic. This is commonly used for procedures such as fillings.

For patients who experience anxiety or need additional comfort, we also offer conscious sedation, including IV sedation. With conscious sedation, you remain awake but deeply relaxed, and you can still respond to verbal cues. This type of sedation helps ease anxiety, reduce awareness of the procedure, and enhance overall comfort.

Sedation options may also be delivered in other forms, such as oral medication or inhaled agents, depending on the patient’s needs and the type of treatment being performed.

If you have concerns about discomfort or dental anxiety, we encourage you to discuss your sedation options with your dentist. Our goal is to ensure a calm, positive experience and provide the level of support that’s right for you.
