Painless Dentistry

Dr. Barber & Associates utilize a variety of methods which can take away the anxiety and pain normally associated with dentistry. By offering these tools, you can relax through the procedure and not give it another thought. One method we use is called Twilight IV conscious sedation. This procedure makes dentistry a dream! If you break out in a cold sweat just calling the dentist, Dr. Steve Barber and Associates can show you just how relaxing dental care can be with twilight dentistry.

Dr. Steve Barber and Associates is one of the few practices in the country to offer twilight, or IV, sedation. Using an IV, we can administer medication that places you in a tranquil, relaxed state of mind, without leaving you unconscious. So you won’t be left with that groggy after feel. We monitor your vital signs continuously, ensuring a safe, and relaxing, dental experience. You can take advantage of this unique “conscious sedation” for any procedure, general or surgical. Certain conditions must be met, so please contact our office for more information.

We also utilize nitrous oxide (laughing gas) as well as local numbing to help you through your dental procedures. Simply discuss your options with Dr. Barber before any procedure and he will help you determine which is best for you.
