At Columbine Creek Dentistry, as much as possible, we want our patients to feel welcome and at ease during their appointments. However, we also understand that sometimes, this is easier said than done. So, to make it work, we offer several sedation dentistry options like nitrous oxide, IV sedation, and lastly oral sedation.
