With a friendly demeanor and a genuine passion for dentistry, Dr. Melancon takes the time to build strong relationships with their patients, getting to know them on a personal level and understanding their unique dental needs.

Offering multiple options for sedation for regular office visits and oral surgeries

Say goodbye to dental anxiety and fear with sedation dentistry, a safe and effective method that allows you to undergo dental procedures while feeling calm, comfortable, and relaxed - Nitrous Oxide, Sedation By IV, or Conscience Oral Sedation.

Dentures, bridges & partials are still great options to improve your smile

Do you have one or more missing teeth? Are you having trouble chewing your food? Are you embarrassed to smile and have a loss of confidence? If you answered yes to these questions, we can help. Dental implants are the best way to replace missing teeth. You can have your confidence back and your ability to enjoy the things you love.

Sedation Dentistry

For your convenience, we offer these three types of comfort and sedation dentistry:

Nitrous Oxide

This “laughing gas,” as most people know it, is used for simple fillings or routine cleaning treatments and is the most common form of sedation. Thanks to this simple form of sedation, your entire dental treatment can be a relaxing experience.

Sedation By IV

During IV Sedation, the patient’s vital signs are monitored throughout the entirety of the procedure, as the sedation is administered via IV. The patient will have been sleeping during the entire process, in this case, and will awaken only after the procedure.

Suppose a patient must return to school or work after completing the procedure. In that case, it will be especially beneficial for them to understand their need for sufficient recovery time before they leave.

Conscience Oral Sedation

We currently offer oral sedation for our patients who wish to remain conscience and yet come to us with gagging problems or a higher than average amount of fear and anxiety. Throughout the entire procedure, we closely monitor their vital signs once giving a combination of oral medications.

Once taking the oral medication we provide, the patient becomes highly relaxed and drowsy, and after their appointment, most patients remember nothing of the fear or anxiety they may have thought to experience without.

You will not be put to sleep with oral sedation, and during the entire procedure, you will be able to respond to Dr. Melancon and his team.
