Dental Sedation
Plenty of people put off dental work. Sometimes it is a bad experience years ago that never quite faded. Sometimes it is the sound, or the loss of control, or not knowing what is happening above your own face. Whatever the reason, appointments get pushed back, small problems become larger ones, and the longer the gap the harder the next call is to make.
That is a common reason patients arrive here. Dr. Hanam-Jahr has treated nervous patients for over 25 years, and she trained as a nurse before dentistry. Sedation options range from mild to deep, so the level is matched to the appointment and to you.
IV Sedation
At Beverly Hills Aesthetic Dentistry, we know dental visits and dental procedures can be extremely stressful for anxious patients. That’s why we offer professional IV sedation dentistry, administered by a board-certified dental anesthesiologist, to ensure your complete comfort during dental treatment.
IV conscious sedation helps you stay deeply relaxed and calm during longer dental procedures or more complex dental treatments like oral surgery. Our certified anesthesiologist carefully monitors your vital signs and sedation levels, making sure the entire sedation process is completely safe and smooth. You’ll remain conscious but deeply relaxed with minimal anxiety, with little to no memory of the dental procedure afterward.
Get the comprehensive dental care you need without the dental stress or anxiety at Beverly Hills Aesthetic Dentistry through safe, professional sedation dentistry.
Anti-Anxiety Medication
At Beverly Hills Aesthetic Dentistry, we understand that dental appointments and dental procedures can make some patients feel extremely anxious about dental treatment. For those who need gentle help managing dental anxiety, we offer single-dose prescription anti-anxiety medications taken before your dental appointment.
This simple anxiety management solution helps you stay calm and comfortable during your dental treatment without heavy sedation. You’ll feel relaxed and at ease while remaining fully awake and aware, making your dental visit completely stress-free and smooth for anxiety-prone patients.
Feel more comfortable and confident with our gentle dental care and anxiety relief options at Beverly Hills Aesthetic Dentistry.

Anxiety Free Dentistry
Sedation lets you get through treatment you have been avoiding. Nitrous oxide takes the edge off and wears off before you leave. Oral sedation goes further and needs a ride home. IV sedation is for longer appointments or for patients who want minimal memory of it.
Dr. Hanam-Jahr walks you through what each one feels like before you choose. You can also stop at any point. Nothing about the plan is fixed once you are in the chair. Results vary by patient.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is sedation dentistry safe for most patients in Beverly Hills?
Yes. Professional dental sedation administered by a trained dentist is safe for the overwhelming majority of healthy adults. Dr. Hanam-Jahr completes a thorough review of your medical history and current medications before recommending any type of sedation, so nothing is administered without a clear picture of your health first. The monitoring equipment used throughout the appointment tracks your vital signs continuously, which is what separates professional sedation in a clinical setting from anything you might try to manage at home.
How much does sedation dentistry cost in Beverly Hills?
The cost depends on which type of sedation is used. Nitrous oxide, the lightest option, typically adds $100 to $200 to the cost of your appointment. Oral sedation runs $150 to $500, and IV sedation runs $300 to $800 depending on the length and complexity of the procedure. Beverly Hills Aesthetic Dentistry presents the full cost of sedation and treatment at the consultation before anything is scheduled, so there are no surprises when you arrive.
Will I need someone to drive me home after sedation dentistry?
It depends on the type of sedation used. Nitrous oxide wears off within minutes of the mask being removed, and most patients can drive themselves home afterward. Oral sedation and IV sedation both require a driver because the effects last several hours beyond the appointment and impair your ability to drive safely. Beverly Hills Aesthetic Dentistry gives you specific instructions for your type of sedation at the consultation so you can plan the day without any guesswork.
Can I get more dental work done in one visit with sedation?
Yes, and this is one of the most practical benefits of sedation for patients who have been putting off care. When anxiety is no longer a barrier, Dr. Hanam-Jahr can often complete treatment that would normally require multiple visits in a single appointment, which saves time and reduces the total number of trips to the office. Patients who have been avoiding the dentist for years often find that sedation makes it possible to catch up on everything they need in far fewer visits than they expected.
What is the difference between nitrous oxide, oral sedation, and IV sedation?
Nitrous oxide is a gas inhaled through a small mask placed over the nose that produces mild relaxation and wears off within minutes of removal. Oral sedation is a pill taken before your appointment that creates a deeper sense of calm and drowsiness that lasts several hours. IV sedation is administered directly into the bloodstream for the most immediate and adjustable effect, used for patients with significant anxiety or longer procedures. Dr. Hanam-Jahr recommends the right option based on your anxiety level, medical history, and the treatment being completed.
