You Are Not Alone
Anxiety-free
dentistry starts here.

If you feel nervous about visiting the dentist, you’re not alone — dental anxiety is very common. At Horizon Dental, we provide options and approaches to support patients who experience anxiety, with a focus on creating a calm and completely reassuring environment.

Your comfort is our top priority. If preferred, we can administer nitrous oxide (happy gas) during appointments — an extremely safe and effective sedative that leads to deep mental and muscle relaxation. You can also lie back and watch your favourite Netflix show on our ceiling- mounted TV with noise-cancelling headphones. You’ll soon forget that a trip to the dentist ever bothered you.

Our Sedation Offerings
Four ways to feel
completely at ease.

With just a little comfort management, we can get your oral health back on track — without fear, without fuss.

Inhalation Sedation
Nitrous Oxide

Commonly known as happy gas, this safe and fast-acting inhalation sedation leads to deep mental and muscle relaxation. It takes effect within minutes and wears off quickly once removed — you can drive home afterwards.

01
Pre-Appointment
Oral Sedatives

Prescription oral sedatives can be taken prior to your appointment to ensure you arrive relaxed and feel completely at ease from the moment you sit in the chair. Ideal for patients with moderate to high anxiety.

02
In-Chair Comfort
Relaxation Techniques

Noise-cancelling headphones and a ceiling-mounted TV mean you can zone out to your favourite Netflix show during treatment. Many patients are genuinely surprised by how comfortable the experience turns out to be.

03
Advanced Option
General Anaesthesia

For patients requiring complex wisdom teeth extraction or extremely nervous patients, we are able to offer general anaesthesia with our partnered oral surgeon — performed in a fully equipped surgical facility.

The Horizon Dental Difference
Comfort in
every detail.

From the moment you walk in, everything at Horizon Dental is
designed to put nervous patients at ease — from the complimentary beverage in our waiting room to our gentle technique and attentive team.

Safe & Clinically Proven
Nitrous oxide has been used safely in dentistry for over 150 years. It's fast-acting, reversible, and the most widely used sedation option in dental practices worldwide.
Nitrous Oxide — Happy Gas
Administered via a comfortable nasal mask, nitrous oxide takes effect in minutes and produces deep relaxation and warmth. Most patients say they barely noticed the procedure at all.
Ceiling TV & Noise-Cancelling Headphones
Lie back and enjoy your favourite Netflix show during treatment. Noise-cancelling headphones mean you hear your show, not the handpiece — a genuine game- changer for anxious patients.
