Kansas Center for Sedation Dentistry

Kansas Center for Sedation Dentistry, located at 5120 Congressional Cir Suite 100, Lawrence, KS 66049, is a dental practice dedicated to providing a comfortable and anxiety-free experience for its patients. The practice emphasizes sedation dentistry, catering to individuals who experience dental anxiety, fear, a sensitive gag reflex, or who require extensive dental procedures. The brand offers various types of sedation to suit different needs: Nitrous Oxide Sedation ("Laughing Gas"): This is a mild, fast-acting sedative inhaled through a mask, providing immediate relaxation and quickly wearing off after the procedure, allowing patients to drive themselves home. Oral Conscious Sedation: For moderate dental fear, patients take a prescribed pill about an hour before their appointment, leading to a significantly more relaxed state. The effects last longer, requiring a trusted person to drive the patient to and from the appointment. IV Sedation (Intravenous Sedation): Administered directly into the bloodstream for immediate and deeper relaxation, often referred to as "sleep dentistry." While patients remain conscious and can respond, many do not remember the procedure afterward. This is typically recommended for severe dental fear or lengthy treatments and also requires a driver. Beyond sedation, Kansas Center for Sedation Dentistry provides a comprehensive range of general and family dentistry services, ensuring that all dental needs can be met under one roof. Their team of dentists, including Dr. Brian Heck, Dr. Ahsan Iqbal, Dr. Sadaf Razzak, and Dr. Cory Diaz, are committed to personalized care and building long-term relationships with their patients. The practice's philosophy centers on patient comfort, utilizing modern dental technology and prioritizing clear communication to ensure patients understand their treatment options. They are in-network with Delta Dental Premier and BlueCross BlueShield and also assist out-of-network patients with claims.
