About Oral Sedation

Dental anxiety is a common concern for many patients, but it should never prevent anyone from receiving the care they need. We offer oral sedation to help patients feel calm and at ease during treatment. Our dentists and team provide this safe and effective option for those who want a more relaxed dental experience.

A Gentle Way to Ease Dental Anxiety

Oral sedation involves taking a prescribed medication before your appointment. This medication helps you feel drowsy, relaxed and free from worry while remaining awake and able to respond. It is ideal for patients who experience:

  • Mild to moderate dental anxiety
  • Fear of needles or dental instruments
  • Sensitivity to sounds, smells or gag reflex
  • Difficulty sitting still during longer procedures
  • Past traumatic dental experiences

We tailor the dosage and care based on your medical history and comfort level. You will need a companion to drive you to and from your appointment, as the effects may linger for several hours after your visit.

What Our Patients Are Saying

Arianna S.

I highly recommend copper hills for the whole family. My kids love going to this dentist office, my oldest asks to go here all the time! The staff is very sweet and work hard to make sure you’re comfortable.

Beth M.

I had a crown put in and it was completed within 75 minutes. The crown was created in-office so it was a one trip painless process. Dentist and assistant were very professional and caring. Billing was quick and, with their new membership program I saved 20%. I have been using this dental office for many years and they are up on all the latest procedures.

Josh & Katy B.

They have a great office for kids / family! The staff is great to work with. Their care is set up to make patients feel comfortable, and the office is well appointed, pleasant and professional.

Tamara K.

The staff is wonderful and the dentist is very thorough in making sure that the patients issues are addressed. I have always been stressed when it comes to going to the dentist until I started coming here. Even my 4 year old child enjoys going here 🙂
