Making Dental Visits Easier and More Comfortable

At Nampa Smiles, we understand that going to the dentist can feel overwhelming for some patients. Sedation dentistry is a safe and effective way to help you feel calm, relaxed, and comfortable during your visit.

Whether you have dental anxiety, need a longer procedure, or simply want a more relaxed experience, we’re here to make your care as stress-free as possible.

What Is Sedation Dentistry?

Sedation dentistry uses medication to help you relax during treatment. Depending on your needs, sedation can range from mild relaxation to deeper levels of comfort.

Our goal is simple. Help you feel at ease while we take care of your smile safely and gently.

Types of Sedation

We offer several options based on your comfort level and treatment needs

Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas)

  • Administered through a small mask over your nose.

  • Helps you feel calm while remaining fully awake.

  • Wears off quickly so you can return to your day.

Oral Sedatives

  • Taken before your appointment.

  • Helps you feel deeply relaxed while staying awake.

  • You may need someone to drive you home afterward.

IV Sedation

  • Delivered through a vein for a more controlled level of relaxation.

  • Creates a deeper sense of calm with little memory of the procedure.

  • Requires monitoring and time to recover after your visit.

General Anesthesia

  • Used for more complex procedures or severe anxiety.

  • Allows you to be fully asleep during treatment.

  • Carefully managed for safety and comfort.

Why Sedation Dentistry Matters

Your Safety Comes First

Your comfort is important, but your safety is always our top priority. Our trained team closely monitors you throughout your visit and follows strict safety protocols to ensure a smooth and secure experience from start to finish.

After practicing in community health for several years, I joined the team at Nampa Smiles. I grew up in Northern Utah, but have made the Treasure Valley home. I attended Weber State University. After graduating Cum Laude, I moved to Virginia, where I attended the Medical College of Virginia (VCU) for dental school. While there, I grew to love the practice of dentistry and enjoy all aspects of dentistry. Following dental school, I decided to advance my skills and complete a residency program at the University of Utah Hospital in Salt Lake City. While I was there, I was able to hone my skills in advanced oral surgery, endodontics (root canals), dental implants, pediatrics, oral and IV sedation, and orthodontics. I truly enjoy all aspects of dentistry and love advancing my knowledge and skills through continuing education.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my family. I have 2 young boys who keep me very busy. I love to fly fish, ride snowmobiles, and ATV’s. I could not be happier to join the team here at Nampa Smiles. I will be located at our south office and look forward to treating you and your family’s dental needs.
