Nitrous Oxide Gas
Our practice offers certain anesthetics for patients when requested in order to handle difficult procedures. Nitrous oxide is a relaxing gas that soothes patients and enables them to relax and experience a pleasant state instead of the discomfort of a dental procedure.
Oral Sedation Dentistry
Under oral sedation dentistry, Dr. Lu’s patients are given an oral sedative, which puts them into a very drowsy, sleepy state, but they are not unconscious.
Sometimes referred to as “sleep” or “relaxation” dentistry, the terms describe the sensations most patients experience during their oral sedation appointments. Oral sedation allows Dr. Lu to help patients become as comfortable as possible
We look forward to having the opportunity to serve your dental needs. For additional questions, please refer to our Dental Health Center section of our web site, or for appointment requests or additional enquiries please call 703.585.2688 or send us an email.
