We provide the following levels of dental sedation for our patients in Greeley, CO: 

Support for Dental Anxiety 

Luker Dental can offer safe support for anxious patients in the form of medication taken prior to their procedure. If you experience dental anxiety, let us know before your visit. Our team is here to help ensure your visit is as comfortable as possible!  

Laughing Gas

Laughing gas, or inhalation sedation, is a form of light sedation and is typically offered to young patients or those with mild anxiety in the dental chair. For laughing gas sedation, a colorless, odor-free gas is administered through a mask that fits comfortably over your nose ad mouth. Dr. Luker carefully monitors the amount of gas used to provide a safe comfortable level of sedation. Patients will remain awake and able to follow instructions throughout their treatment. 

IV Sedation

Intravenous sedation, or sleep dentistry, is occasionally offered to patients who require extra care during dental treatments or those who have to undergo prolonged oral surgery or treatment. IV sedation uses anti-anxiety medication to promote relaxation without putting the patient into a deep sleep. On the rare occasion IV sedation is required, Dr. David Luker will bring a nurse anesthetist on-site to adjust the medication as needed during treatment to help patients relax and retain short-term memories.

Sedation Dentistry For Children

If your child is anxious, has unique healthcare needs, or requires extra help staying calm while receiving dental treatment, we may recommend sedation dentistry. Our sedation dentist Dr. David Luker will create your child's sedation plan based on their needs, health history, and his own extensive experience!
