A lot of people become nervous or afraid before receiving dental treatment. (Even Dr. Weldon’s wife - who IS a dentist!) Weldon Dental of Rome should be a place where you can feel safe and secure while we treat your smile, and to that end we offer sedation dentistry in our Rome, GA dental office as a solution for those with dental phobias or anxieties. Let us know about your concerns when you call our dental office; Dr. Weldon can arrange to have sedation dentistry provided on the day of your appointment.
You don’t have to do anything special to prepare for nitrous oxide sedation or alter your daily plans. You’ll simply sit down in your dental chair and let us place a small mask over your nose. Once we turn on the machine, you’ll breathe in the sedative mixed with oxygen, putting you in a relaxed state for the duration of the appointment. You’ll be awake, but at ease, and we can easily wake you up if you doze off. The sedative wears off in a few minutes after we stop administering it, so you can plan to drive yourself home.
