  • Yes, sedation dentistry is extremely safe when administered by trained dental professionals. At Ahn Dental Specialists, we conduct thorough medical evaluations before treatment and monitor you closely throughout your procedure.

  • We offer several sedation options, including nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral conscious sedation, and IV sedation. The best option for you depends on your anxiety level, medical history, and the complexity of the procedure.

  • With most sedation options (except general anesthesia), you will be in a deeply relaxed state but still able to respond to verbal cues. Many patients report feeling drowsy and not remembering much of the procedure afterward.

  • Sedation dentistry is ideal for individuals with dental anxiety, fear of needles, sensitive gag reflexes, special needs, or those undergoing extensive dental procedures. A consultation with our team will help determine the best sedation method for you.

  • Recovery times vary depending on the type of sedation used. Nitrous oxide wears off within minutes, allowing you to resume normal activities, while oral and IV sedation may require a few hours of rest and someone to drive you home.

Why Redondo Beach Patients Trust Ahn Dental Specialists

After trying many dentists around Los Angeles, I'm so glad to have found Dr. Ahn's office. Her and her staff are awesome! Everyone in the office is always really happy and upbeat. The cleanings are very thorough and they make sure you feel comfortable throughout. Jill always does an awesome job cleaning my teeth and explaining the best ways for me to brush and floss at home. Highly recommend!
Tess Watson
My kids have been seeing Dr Ahn for almost two years now. Not only she gives them the best dental care, she is also very patient and understanding. When my 10 year old was feeling nervous, Dr Ahn and her staff gave her enough time and kindly explained about the treatment. Highly recommended!
Yuni Kim
Great office all around - nice staff, flexible scheduling, very gentle hygienists, and Dr Ahn is so nice and caring. I just had an emergency filling done on New Year’s Eve and she took her time and I didn’t feel a thing. The best dentist I’ve ever had!
Steve Goldberg
We have been going to Dr Ahn dental for the last couple years. Her staff is always so welcoming and nice. They are great if you have little ones who might be afraid of going to the dentist. My girl also appreciates the prize bin at the end of the cleaning! I would highly recommend.
Andy Chen
Amazing doctor! I needed an implant in the front and Dr Ahn restored it in such an amazingly natural way that you can’t tell which tooth is “fake” - I’ve been self conscious about it for a while. I’m smiling more and I love it! Thanks!
