Our Las Vegas dental office understands that dental appointments can trigger anxiety for those who have had negative experiences in the past. We aim to change how you feel about visiting the dentist because having healthy teeth should not mean you are uncomfortable or stressed. At the offices of Drs. Chin & Pharar, our Las Vegas general dentists, are proud to offer sedation dentistry options to make your next procedure painless and anxiety-free. Whether you’re facing dental implant surgery, cosmetic procedures, or routine care, our sedation options help patients receive treatment comfortably.
What is Sedation Dentistry?
Sedatives from dental professionals are different from the sedatives used by other medical providers. Most sedation options at the dentist are meant to keep you awake and relaxed, while eliminating pain. Consciousness is crucial to the success of the given procedure. By keeping you awake, you’re able to keep your mouth open, respond to our questions, and allow us to check in on how you’re feeling.
Additional benefits include:
- Eliminates anxiety
- Reduces pain
- Enhances your comfort
- Stifles your gag reflex
- Allows multiple procedures in the same sitting
Flexible Payment Plans Available
Comprehensive dental treatments with flexible financing options to make quality care affordable for everyone.
Types of Sedation We Offer
Oral Sedation

How Much Does Dental Sedation Cost?
While we don’t currently offer IV sedation, our office provides the following options to help ease anxiety:
- Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas): $80 to $100 per hour
- Anxiety Oral Medication: $200
Key Factors Affecting Sedation Costs:
- Treatment Duration: Longer procedures may require extended sedation times.
- Personal Comfort Levels: Some patients may require multiple sedation options for a fully relaxed experience.
- Insurance Coverage: Sedation is often considered elective, so it may not be covered by insurance.
We believe a calm, comfortable experience should be available to everyone, which is why we offer flexible payment options through Alphaeon, CareCredit, and our in-office membership plan. These financing solutions help patients throughout Nevada access the sedation care they need without financial stress. Learn more about our savings plan options.
