At our dental office, we believe that visiting the dentist should never feel overwhelming or stressful. If fear or anxiety has kept you from getting the dental care you need, our sedation options are designed to help you relax and feel completely at ease.
From routine treatments to advanced procedures, we make your experience calm, comfortable, and pain-free.
We understand that many patients feel nervous about dental visits. That’s why our Wingate dental team focuses on creating a peaceful, supportive environment paired with safe sedation options.
Sedation dentistry allows you to remain relaxed while we take care of your oral health needs efficiently and comfortably. Whether you struggle with dental anxiety, sensitive teeth, or difficulty sitting through long treatments, we’re here to help make your visit easy.
Our goal is simple: help you get the care you need without stress or discomfort.


Sedation dentistry is an excellent solution for patients who:
If any of these apply to you, sedation dentistry can help you finally receive care with confidence.
We provide different sedation levels to match your comfort needs and treatment type.
A light sedative inhaled through a mask that helps you feel calm and relaxed during treatment. It wears off quickly, allowing you to resume normal activities soon after your visit.
A prescribed medication taken before your appointment that creates a deeper level of relaxation. You will remain conscious but may feel drowsy and less aware of the procedure.
A stronger sedation option for patients who need more complex procedures or have significant dental anxiety. It allows for a deeply relaxed or sleep-like state while remaining safely monitored.
We make your sedation dentistry experience smooth and predictable from start to finish.
Most patients remember very little about their procedure and leave feeling relieved and satisfied.


Sedation dentistry can be used for many types of dental care, including:
No matter the procedure, sedation helps ensure a calm and comfortable experience.

You don’t have to let fear stop you from getting the smile you deserve. At Sedation Dentistry Wingate, we make dental care simple, calm, and comfortable for every patient.
Let us help you transform your dental experience into something positive and stress-free.

Yes! Clarksville Smiles offers compassionate, anxiety-free sedation dentistry for patients living in and around Wingate. We know that dental phobia keeps many people from getting the care they deserve. Our nearby practice focuses on changing that by providing a warm, supportive environment where Wingate residents can finally get their dental work done in complete peace.
During your consultation, we will help you select the ideal option based on your anxiety levels and the type of procedure you need. We offer Nitrous Oxide for a light, breezy sense of calm that fades right away; Oral Sedation pills that cause deep relaxation and a carefree attitude; and IV Sedation for an advanced, deeper state of calm that is perfect for complex surgeries or severe phobias.
No, you will not be completely unconscious. Unlike general anesthesia used in hospitals, dental sedation allows you to stay awake, breathe on your own, and answer simple questions from Dr. Ribeiro. However, you will feel so peaceful and drift so close to sleep that the time will seem to fly by, and you likely won’t remember any of the sights or sounds of your treatment.
We take patient safety incredibly seriously. Our team is rigorously trained and certified in all aspects of sedation administration. Before your appointment, we meticulously check your medical background and health status. Throughout your entire procedure, we stay by your side and use state-of-the-art monitoring systems to track your pulse, blood pressure, and oxygen levels every step of the way.
If your treatment only requires Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas), you are perfectly fine to drive yourself back home to Wingate, as the effects dissolve within five minutes. If you receive oral or IV sedation, the medication stays active in your system for several hours. For these deeper methods, you are legally required to bring an adult companion who can safely drive you home.
Take the first step toward anxiety-free dentistry.
