Stay Calm With Sedation Options in Hillsborough

It can be frustrating if your dental anxiety isn’t taken seriously. At Carolina Bright Smiles, we understand how real a fear of the dentist can be. So our dentists offer Hillsborough sedation options to help you relax while you’re in our patient chair. Sedation dentistry makes it possible to get the care you need to keep your smile in great condition.
Because every situation is different, we offer three kinds of safe dental sedation:

  • Inhaled Sedation – After a few deep breaths, inhaled sedation makes you feel light and happy. Your dentist will place a small mask over your nose for you to inhale the gas. This light sedation wears off quickly, so you’ll be able to drive yourself home if you’d like.
  • Oral Sedation – You’ll take a single dose of prescription medication before your visit, so you’ll arrive relaxed and stay that way. Oral sedation makes time pass quickly and softens memories of your treatment. You’ll likely be groggy after your procedure, so you will need a ride home.
  • IV Sedation – You’ll be in a deeply relaxed state after we intravenously administer medication. We can easily adjust the amount you receive during your procedure if you need more to stay relaxed.

In addition to sedation dentistry, our dentists are skilled in minimizing your discomfort, and our friendly team goes out of their way to make you feel at home. To schedule a stress-free appointment, call 919-644-7400.

Getting Numb Is Painless With Sting-Free Anesthesia

If you’re anxious about receiving local anesthesia, you don’t need to be here. We use a pain-free local anesthesia system from North Carolina company Anutra Medical. They’ve figured out a way to take the sting out of the numbing process. We’re proud to offer it as part of our pain-free dentistry policy.
Don’t let dental anxiety be the reason your smile falls into disrepair. We’ll ease your anxiety with Hillsborough sedation options. Call 919-644-7400 or use our online form to schedule your appointment at Carolina Bright Smiles. In addition to Hillsborough, we serve nearby communities including Cedar Grove, NC, Mebane, NC, and Bahama, NC.

To Our Patients,

We understand and deeply respect that you may be concerned about Coronavirus in public places… even at our state-of-the-art sterilized office.

At Carolina Bright Smiles, I want to assure you that our office has even further heightened our already rigid sterilization safeguards and office cleaning standards to minimize the possibility of transmission to our outstanding team…or to you, our valued patient. We have always far exceeded all standards for sterilization and patient care.

Our first priority is always the health and well-being of our patients. And that is a priority we take extremely seriously, even with the current disruptions we’re all experiencing.

Your dental health remains important to us as it plays such an important role in your overall health.

When you visit our office, you’ll see we’ve taken all the necessary steps to ensure you have the best patient experience possible. If you are experiencing any symptoms, please do not come to our office and call us to reschedule your appointment. We care for you and all our patients. If we see any symptoms in our patients or our team, we will reschedule the appointment on the spot and send that individual home.

It is just one more way that we can show our high level of care for you…and for everyone in our community. We very much look forward to seeing you, your family, and your friends very soon.

Sincerely,
Dr. Steve Garrett
Carolina Bright Smiles
