Sedation Options in Burleson, TX
At Dental Visions, we know dental anxiety can prevent patients from getting the care they need. That’s why we offer a full range of sedation options—including oral sedation dentistry, IV sedation and nitrous oxide—to help you feel relaxed and at ease. Oral sedation involves taking a safe, prescribed medication before your appointment that allows you to remain calm but alert. For more complex or lengthy procedures like wisdom teeth removal, dental implants or root canals, we offer IV sedation for a deeper level of comfort and minimal memory of the visit.
As one of the only dentists in Johnson County offering IV sedation, Dr. James Denton and our experienced team are uniquely equipped to deliver safe, customized care for even the most anxious patients. Whether you’re nervous about your first appointment or a surgical procedure, we’ll help you choose the sedation method that’s right for you—so you can get the dental care you deserve without stress.
