Some children feel especially anxious about dental visits — and that’s okay. Whether it’s due to fear, sensory sensitivities, special healthcare needs, or extensive treatment, sedation dentistry can help your child relax and receive the care they need safely.
We provide safe, age-appropriate sedation options in a monitored setting:
Nitrous oxide (laughing gas): A mild sedative that helps children feel calm and at ease
Oral conscious sedation: A stronger option for children with higher anxiety or more complex needs
We’ll help you choose the right option based on your child’s comfort level and the procedure being done.
Your child’s health and safety are always our top concern. Before recommending sedation, we:
Review your child’s full medical history
Explain the sedation process in detail
Monitor your child closely before, during, and after the visit

Our goal is to make each dental experience positive — so kids feel empowered to return with confidence. At Harrison Pediatric Dentistry, sedation dentistry helps us remove fear as a barrier to care, so your child can get the treatment they need in a stress-free environment.
If your child feels nervous about dental visits, let’s talk. Sedation may be the gentle solution that makes it all feel doable.
