Two Safe Sedation Choices
One Trusted Surgeon
At The Oral & Facial Surgery Center, you can fully relax with nitrous oxide or intravenous (IV) sedation. By offering two different sedation options, we make it easier for our patients of our oral maxillofacial surgeon in Clearfield, UT, to undergo necessary dental care without the anxiety they typically experience.
When you meet with Dr. Mark Newey, he will assess your health and candidacy to determine the right form of sedation for you. Until then, we can give you a quick rundown of the possibilities.
Nitrous Oxide
for Lighter Sedation
Have plans for your day? You may want to consider nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, which is a type of conscious sedation. We administer nitrous oxide by placing a mask over your nose, so you can easily breathe in the gas.
Nitrous oxide quickly leaves your system after the nose mask is removed. Unlike with other sedation options like oral sedation and IV sedation, you may be able to drive yourself home once your visit is complete.
IV Sedation
for Deeper Sedation
For patients who require an extensive procedure or have substantial anxiety, we can provide IV sedation. This option allows patients to have sedation administered directly to the bloodstream. It's more powerful than nitrous oxide and oral sedation, allowing you to drift into a peaceful twilight state.
Afterward, you'll likely have very little memory of your dental procedure. Just remember, you'll need a trusted friend or family member to drive you home and you may want to rest for about 24 hours.

What Are the Benefits of Sedation Dentistry? Explore Them During a Consultation
For many of our Clearfield dental patients who experience dental anxiety or have trouble sitting still in the dental chair, sedation can be life-changing. It offers incredible advantages like:
Receiving Much-Needed Care
If your anxiety is bad enough, you may put off necessary oral surgery entirely. With sedation, you can receive the care you need.
Healthy, Functional Smiles
For those who need dental procedures like implants or bone grafting, sedation makes all the difference. It allows our surgeon to treat your dental conditions and restore your smile.
Peace of Mind
Visiting a dental office can feel like a major step when you have dental anxiety. Sedation eases that burden so that you can feel empowered to visit our team worry-free.
Quicker Dentistry Treatment
When you're fully relaxed with laughing gas or IV sedation, it's often easier to conduct your treatment. As a result, we may be able to complete your dental care more quickly.

For our Clearfield and Layton, UT, patients, sedation is a part of a team effort. Dr. Newey combines a local anesthetic with your choice of nitrous oxide or IV sedation. Whether you are awake with conscious sedation or in a twilight state with deeper sedation, our two-pronged approach keeps you from feeling discomfort and anxiety.
Is Sedation Covered by Insurance?
Insurance typically doesn't cover nitrous oxide, IV sedation, and oral conscious sedation. However, it will help with the cost of many procedures deemed necessary for your health.
It can help to think of sedation dentistry as an investment in your oral wellness because it gives you the peace of mind necessary to seek the care you need before your problem becomes worse and requires more extensive treatment. Not to mention, sedation will help you stay completely relaxed.
How Can I Pay for My Treatment?
Our oral surgeon hopes to make a difference in your oral health and function with sedation dentistry. We accept several ways to cover your costs, such as:
Dental Insurance
Though insurance won't cover the cost of your sedation, it can help with many necessary dentistry procedures, including certain oral surgeries. We take most insurances and can confirm if yours is accepted.
Cash or Card
Another way that our Clearfield, UT, dentistry patients cover their oral surgery and sedation is through cash and most major credit cards, like Visa.
CareCredit
Even with a limited budget, you can still receive sedation with the care you need. Our oral surgeon accepts financing through CareCredit®, a reputable lender that lets you pay for your care in manageable installments.
