Comfort & Sedation Options

Comfort Menu

Every visit should feel as comfortable as possible. That’s why we offer a complimentary Comfort Menu designed to help you relax from the moment you settle into the chair. Just ask any team member.

Laughing Gas

Nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, helps to relax your mind and body. Laughing gas comforts you into letting go of any fear, falling into a happy and floaty feeling. This is best for dental anxiety associated with smells and sounds of dentistry. This can be used in conjunction with the comfort menu.

Oral Sedation

Oral sedation is as easy as taking a pill, prescribed by our dentist, prior to your appointment. When you arrive for your treatment you will be relaxed and at ease. This option can also be paired with the comfort menu and works best for those with mild dental anxiety.

IV Sedation (For Dental Implants)

With IV sedation, you will be conscious during your treatment, but many patients feel so relaxed that they fall asleep. Our dentist can easily and safely adjust the amount of sedative you receive to ensure that you remain comfortable. This option is excellent for those with moderate dental anxiety.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just left the initial visit with my new dentist. I was very nervous and hesitant when I walked in and very relaxed and accepting when I walked out.
Everyone is so kind, calm and knowledgeable.
I have had a fear of dentists for many many years and I can honestly say that this is the first time I was able to walk out of a dental office with no fear of upcoming procedures
I highly recommend this practice to everyone!!!

The Potomac Dental Center has a warm, bright and professional atmosphere. From the moment I walked through the door on my first visit I felt welcome and safe. That feeling grows with each visit. I'm extremely happy with my results. I told my hygienist Lindsey "I have fun when I come here. What's that say about me?" We both laughed but it is the truth. I trust them with my smile.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently came across this dental center when I was frantically searching for someone to get me in since my tooth had just broken. They got me in immediately. I was very pleased upon entering the practice to see smiling faces and a calm atmosphere. They were very thorough, understanding, comforting, and just made it the best experience considering the circumstances.
