Dental Care for People Who Dread Dental Care
Nitrous oxide and IV sedation options, plus a gentle team, help anxious patients get the treatment they need
What sedation options does Willow Family Dentistry offer?
Willow Family Dentistry in Wylie offers nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and IV sedation for patients with dental anxiety. Nitrous oxide helps you relax while staying awake, and its effects wear off within minutes so you can drive yourself home. IV sedation provides deeper relaxation for longer or more complex procedures. Dr. Esther Jeong monitors your vital signs throughout either option.
Sedation Dentistry at Willow Family Dentistry
If you have been avoiding the dentist because of fear or anxiety, you are not alone. A lot of our patients feel that way. We offer nitrous oxide for mild relaxation and IV sedation for deeper comfort during longer or more complex procedures. But sedation is only part of how we help. We also explain what we are doing before we do it, check in with you during treatment, and stop whenever you need a break. Some patients just need to know they are in control. We get that.

Sedation Options
Learn about our sedation options designed to make your dental visit stress-free.
Nitrous oxide, sometimes called laughing gas, helps anxious patients relax during dental treatment. You breathe it through a small mask that rests on your nose. Within a few minutes, you feel calm and a bit floaty. You stay awake and can respond to questions, but the anxiety fades. When we remove the mask, the effects clear within minutes. There is no hangover, no lasting drowsiness. You can drive yourself home and go about your day.
