Sedation Dentistry in Conshohocken, PA

At Ember Dental Arts, we understand that visiting the dentist can be an anxious experience for many patients. That’s why we offer sedation dentistry in Conshohocken, PA, designed to help you feel calm, safe, and comfortable during your treatment. Whether you’re nervous about a routine cleaning or undergoing a complex dental procedure, our sedation options allow you to receive the care you need without fear or stress.

What Is Sedation Dentistry?

Sedation dentistry uses safe, effective medications to help patients relax in the dental chair. It’s sometimes called “sleep dentistry,” although most sedation methods keep you awake and able to respond, just deeply relaxed. At Ember Dental Arts, Dr. Heather and our compassionate team customize sedation plans to your needs, ensuring a smooth and positive experience.

Benefits of Sedation Dentistry

  • Reduces dental anxiety and fear

  • Makes long or complex procedures feel shorter

  • Minimizes discomfort during treatment

  • Helps patients with strong gag reflexes or sensitivity

  • Encourages consistent dental care and better oral health

Our Sedation Options

At Ember Dental Arts, we tailor sedation to your level of comfort and the type of procedure you’re receiving. Options may include:

  • Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas): A gentle sedative inhaled through a mask that helps you relax while staying fully conscious.

  • Oral Conscious Sedation: Prescription medication taken before your appointment to keep you calm and at ease.

  • IV Sedation (for complex cases): Administered under close supervision for deeper relaxation during surgical or extensive treatments.

Who Can Benefit?

Sedation dentistry is ideal for patients who:

  • Experience dental anxiety or phobia

  • Need multiple treatments in one visit

  • Have difficulty sitting still for long periods

  • Have sensitive teeth or gums

  • Avoided dental care due to fear in the past

Your Comfort Is Our Priority

Dr. Heather’s gentle approach, combined with advanced sedation techniques, ensures that even the most anxious patients feel safe and cared for. At Ember Dental Arts, we believe everyone deserves stress-free access to high-quality dentistry.

Super nice, modern, clean office (and bathroom!). Had to wait 50 minutes to be seen though. Dr. Rowland seemed very knowledgeable about dentistry. I would trust her. I do plan on going back for a cleaning and get a chipped front tooth fixed. Went back for my cleaning, X-Rays and to have a chip fixed and was very impressed! Christy at the front desk is so nice and cheerful! Dr. Rowland is super knowledgeable. She told me things about my teeth and mouth that no other dentist had ever informed me of! I was nervous about getting my teeth cleaned bc I have a lot of sensitivity but Dr. Rowland did a great job! Didn’t hurt at all! I would definitely recommend Ember Dental Arts to others.

Ed Palmer

I give Ember Arts 5 stars for the first time consultation visit because I felt comfortable with the Dentist and I was pleased with the future dental plans for treatment..

Wendy Burton

My mother Nancy is 94 years old and has dementia. She also has atelectasis. Which makes it hard for her to cough up and mucus. The dentist was absolutely wonderful scaling my mother’s teeth.

Mary Jean Mcquirnd

Excellent service to the dentist, very friendly, very good work, I am fascinated with his work, thank you

Erika Menes

I had the veneers installed by a completely different dental provider and have had several issues as a result. Dr. Rowlands has been the first doctor to actually sit with me, listen, and provide helpful recommendations. That alone has meant a lot. Thank you.

Hattie

The doctor and her staff make the patient feel comfortable. The office is clean, the equipment is modern, and the wait time is minimal.

Debby Datesman

Great bedside manner. Listened to me and developed a plan that aligned with my dental health and cosmetic needs :-)

Crystal Carmen

I had been avoiding going to the dentist for way too long which only made my anxiety and dental health worse. I wanted to find a practice that would understand my anxiety and help me get back on track without embarrassing me. The team at Ember Dental Arts understood the assignment. 1. Making the appointment was easy. Alex at the front desk checked all my insurance information for me and asked “ is there anything else we can do to make your visit more comfortable?” That was huge. Also, I love that you can text the office. 2. Dr. Heather was kind and spent time talking with me about my concerns and letting me know how she would address them. She made a treatment plan to prioritize my care and best utilize my insurance to respect limited finances. Shout out to Kia who took my X-rays whose calm friendly nature helped my nerves. 3. Max then reviewed the plan with me and helped me understand financing options. I was really nervous and asked a lot of questions, but he didn’t make me feel rushed in making decisions. Other details such as the welcome sign in my exam room, the welcome tote bag with some fun products, and the calm comfortable atmosphere made this visit a pleasant surprise. You can sense that this is a newer practice and yet I will chose their intentionality, skill and service over any more “ established practices”. Thank you, Ember Dental Arts, for lifting my burden and helping me make a path to better health!

I am really happy that I finally found a dentist I feel comfortable with, Dr. Heather and Christy are both friendly and caring, they're awesome! Even the atmosphere in the office is calm, clean and inviting. They don't rush you in and out, they take the time to explain everything that is happening. I will be back for additional work! Thank you!
