Celebrating 16 Years Serving Our Community!

I did my research in the area when my daughter came of age to see a dentist and landed on Healthy Smiles. 5 years later and I am still SO happy with my decision! This is the only dentist my daughters have ever been to because we are so happy with this practice. The dentist can be scary, but Healthy Smiles does what they can to make it less so for my girls. There is a welcoming, fun lobby. Kind employees. A TV screen to watch over the procedure chair. They say everything they are doing out loud to keep your kiddos informed. And a couple of fun little prizes for the brave patient when it is done. I 100% recommend this dentist for your kids.
We had a wonderful experience here for my daughter's cleaning and tooth extraction. The team was extremely patient and explained the process very clearly. They walked us through each and every step and were very gentle with the tooth extraction. This facility is highly recommended.
Here’s a polished version you can post directly to Google Reviews: ⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had such a wonderful experience with this office! From the front desk to the hygienist to the dentist, everyone was stellar. It was my 1-year-old’s very first appointment, and they handled it beautifully. My 5-year-old was the calmest and least anxious I’ve ever seen at the dentist—which says so much about how well they balance education, treatment, and respect for kids’ autonomy. Dr. Davis and Saira were especially Grade A. Thank you for making dental care such a positive and empowering experience for both of my children!
Dr Davis and her staff give excellent dental care. My children have been patients for 5 years. We switched from a different dentist that seemed to push unnecessary expensive treatments. Dr Davis is more conservative and presents all treatment options with fair pricing .
Dr. Davis and her team consistently provide high-quality care to their patients. They are honest about a patient’s needs such as whether yearly or biannual x-rays are needed, and work efficiently to ensure each patient that requires an appointment is seen. I have trusted Dr. Davis and her team for nearly 15 years with my two kids and will always recommend them!

frisco sedation for kids

We know that for kids, dental phobia is very real. We never want to downplay their anxiety or concerns. We want to help kids enjoy a positive experience in our office, and we can do so with dental sedation. At your Frisco, TX, children’s dental practice, we can keep your kids comfortable with sedation dentistry.

Dental Phobias in Children

Often, due to poor previous experiences or lack of experience visiting the dentist, kids can have phobias about the idea. They could feel triggered by the sights and sounds, as well as the tools. They could feel restless as a result, which prolongs their time in the chair and drags out the visit, which only adds to their discomfort and phobia. We never want to exacerbate your child’s anxiety, and we have experience in speaking with kids to help them feel calm and relaxed. But we know that isn’t always enough. With dental sedation, we will help them enter a calm and relaxed state, so they can undergo treatment and enjoy a positive visit to the office, preventing them from dreading their next appointment. This can also help those with special needs as well.

Our Sedation Options

We offer two main forms of sedation available. The option we choose for your little one will depend on their age, weight, medical history, and anxiety levels or special needs. We take all of these factors into account when choosing the best calming option.

The most commonly prescribed option is nitrous oxide, sometimes referred to as laughing gas. Children wear a mask over their nose and breathe in a gas that helps them enter a state of euphoria, so they’re comfortable and calm during the visit. This is safe for all ages, and the effects can be adjusted during treatment and wear off once the procedure ends. Your children could even return to school afterward.

For a deeper state of calm, we could offer oral conscious sedation. Your children enter a deep state of relaxation with the sedation administered orally prior to the procedure. They will be conscious and able to respond to the dentist, but will have little to no memory of the procedure afterward. They may even fall asleep. Afterward, the effects will take time to wear off completely, so they may be groggy and unable to return to school.

If you have any questions about sedation dentistry for kids, then contact our team today to learn more.
