About Sedation Dentistry in Shreveport
Sedation dentistry uses medication to help you stay calm and comfortable during dental treatment. For Shreveport patients dealing with deep dental anxiety, a strong gag reflex, complicated medical histories, or the need to combine multiple procedures, sedation is often the difference between getting care and continuing to avoid it.
At our Pines Road office, sedation options are matched to the procedure and the patient. Lighter cases may use nitrous oxide or oral sedation. More complex full-arch and implant cases are scheduled on days when IV sedation can be coordinated through our network. Dr. David Reed leads treatment planning, and the wider Texas Sedation Dental team is available for collaborative review when a case warrants it.
Your first step is a Shreveport consultation where we review your medical history, current medications, and the dentistry you need. We give you written pre-op instructions, confirm a designated driver, and schedule the visit on a day appropriate sedation services are available. Most Shreveport patients are home recovering within an hour of discharge.

“I had not been to a dentist in twelve years because of fear. The Shreveport team sedated me, got the work done, and Dr. Reed called me that night to check in. I would not have done it anywhere else.”
