Relax and feel at ease during treatment with sedation options from Dr. Ryan Ross and our Billings team.
Comprehensive Sedation Dentistry Care
Dental anxiety keeps many patients from getting the care they need, and sedation dentistry is designed to change that. At Grand Avenue Dental Care, we offer several levels of sedation so you can choose the option that fits your comfort level and procedure, from mild relaxation to deeper sedation for more involved treatment. Our team monitors you closely throughout your visit, so you can stay relaxed while we work, without added stress or discomfort. Sedation is available for complex procedures, dental phobias, and patients with special needs.

Sedation Dentistry Benefits
Sedation dentistry opens the door to care for patients who’ve avoided the dentist due to fear or anxiety. Beyond keeping you calm, it allows our team to work efficiently and without interruption, which often means less time in the chair overall. Many patients find that a relaxed first experience helps them build a more positive association with future visits, making ongoing dental care easier going forward.
Sedation Dentistry Visit Journey
We start by talking through your medical history, anxiety level, and the procedure you need, so Dr. Ross can recommend the sedation option that fits you best. On the day of treatment, your sedation is administered and our team monitors you closely as it takes effect. Throughout the procedure, you’ll remain safe and comfortable, and depending on the sedation used, you may remember little to nothing about the visit afterward. Because sedation can linger, plan to have someone drive you home.
