Understanding the Fear Behind the Visit
You’re Not Alone — We Understand
Many people hesitate to visit the dentist because of anxiety, discomfort, or fear of the unknown. Whether you’ve had a difficult past experience or just feel uneasy, we want you to know you’re not alone. At Sunset Harbor Dental, we offer understanding, not judgment — and care that’s tailored to you.

Designed for Relaxation and Ease
Comfort Amenities You’ll Appreciate
Every detail of our office is designed with your comfort in mind. We offer:
- Flat-screen TVs in every treatment room
- Headphones so you can enjoy music or shows
- Heated blankets for extra warmth and coziness
These small comforts help make your visit more pleasant — even if you’ve always dreaded going to the dentist.
Honest Communication You Can Trust
We keep things simple and clear. From your first consultation to your final follow-up, we make sure you know what to expect. We explain procedures in everyday language and take the time to answer all your questions. We believe informed patients are empowered and confident patients.
Sedation Dentistry for a Calmer Experience
For patients who experience higher levels of dental anxiety or require more complex procedures, we offer safe sedation options.
Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas)
This mild sedative helps you feel calm and comfortable without putting you to sleep. It’s administered through a small mask and wears off quickly after your appointment — allowing you to get back to your day with ease.
Oral Sedation
For deeper relaxation, oral sedation is taken before your visit. You’ll stay awake but feel very at ease during your appointment. Due to its longer-lasting effects, please have someone available to drive you home.
Please note: We do not offer IV sedation at Sunset Harbor Dental.
Is Sedation Right for You?
Sedation dentistry can be a great fit for those who:
- Have dental anxiety or fear
- Have difficulty sitting through long procedures
- Have low pain tolerance
- Struggle with a sensitive gag reflex
We’ll go over your health history and treatment needs to determine the best and safest option for you.

At Sunset Harbor Dental, your comfort is our promise. We want you to enjoy coming to the dentist — or at the very least, not dread it. With a welcoming team, a calm environment, and care that’s focused on you, we’re here to help you smile with confidence and comfort.

Comfort dentistry focuses on creating a relaxing, stress-free environment for patients who experience dental anxiety. It combines a calming atmosphere, compassionate care, and options like sedation dentistry to ease fear and ensure a more pleasant dental experience.
Sunset Harbor Dental offers two sedation options: nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and oral sedation. Nitrous oxide provides mild, quick-relief anxiety control during procedures, while oral sedation offers a deeper sense of calm and relaxation for more complex or anxiety-inducing treatments.
Sedation dentistry is generally safe for most people, but your medical history, medications, and personal anxiety levels will be reviewed to determine the best option. The team at Sunset Harbor Dental customizes sedation plans based on individual needs to ensure comfort and safety.
Expect a warm, welcoming environment with relaxing amenities like TVs, headphones, and heated blankets. The team listens to your concerns, explains each step of the process, and offers sedation if needed, ensuring you feel informed, calm, and cared for throughout your visit.
Sedation dentistry can be a great option for patients with severe dental anxiety, a low pain threshold, a strong gag reflex, or those needing lengthy or complex dental work. A consultation at Sunset Harbor Dental will help determine if sedation is right for your situation.
Overcoming dental fear starts with choosing a practice that prioritizes comfort and communication. At Sunset Harbor Dental, our compassionate team and gentle, caring dentists offer personalized care, patient education, and sedation options, all designed to reduce fear and help you feel safe and supported every step of the way.
