Dentists like Sam Dason DDS are aware of the need for pain relief during oral care procedures. Dentists like Mr. Dason will ensure your pain is minimized to the best of his ability and expertise. Managing your pain during and after your dental visit is a deep concern.
There are several different medications and treatments used in pain relief. These medications can be prescription or over the counter (OTC) drugs. The most commonly used pain relief for minor procedures may include such OTC’s as Motrin or Tylenol. Motrin includes an anti-inflammatory which can be helpful in relieving swelling that might occur from dental instruments.
Nitrous oxide, commonly known as “laughing gas” will help get you through more painful or complex dental procedures. It is of the utmost importance you thoroughly discuss all of your options with your dentist. He can educate you on the risks and benefits of the different pain medications available to you.
According to an article in the Cleveland Clinic: “Local anesthesia, general anesthesia, nitrous oxide or intravenous sedation is commonly used in dental procedures to help control pain and anxiety. Other pain-relievers include prescription or nonprescription anti-inflammatory medication, acetaminophen (Tylenol) and anesthetics.”
