Sedation Options

Visiting the dentist can be a source of anxiety for many children. To ensure a comfortable and stress-free experience, Dr. Chelsea Wehr and our compassionate team offer a variety of sedation options tailored to meet the needs of our young patients. Our goal is to make every dental visit enjoyable and fear-free.
