What is NuCalm?

At our Southlake, TX dental office, we offer NuCalm, a completely drug-free way to help you feel deeply relaxed during dental visits. Instead of using medication, NuCalm naturally guides your body into the same calm state you feel just before drifting off to sleep.

Here’s how it works in three simple steps:

Step 1: Relaxation Disc – We’ll place a small disc on your wrist. This sends calming signals through your body to help you begin to unwind.
Step 2: Soothing Sounds – You’ll wear headphones that play gentle sounds and beats designed to slow your brain activity and encourage relaxation.
Step 3: Eye Mask – Finally, you’ll wear a light-blocking eye mask so your mind can fully disconnect and settle into deep calm.

Who’s a Good Candidate for NuCalm?

Nearly everyone is a good candidate for NuCalm. Even if you don’t suffer from dental anxiety, NuCalm can completely transform your entire dental appointment and leave you walking out of our Southlake, TX dental office refreshed—much like spending the day at a spa. Who wouldn’t want to feel that way after something as routine as a teeth cleaning or as involved as a dental filling?

For patients who do experience dental anxiety, NuCalm offers an added layer of comfort. This innovative system is a drug-free and risk-free alternative to traditional sedation dentistry, making it an appealing option for anyone who wants to feel calm during treatment without lingering side effects.

The system works in just four minutes by guiding your body into a deeply relaxed state, similar to the natural transition before sleep. Once in this state, you can undergo your dental treatment—whether it’s preventive care, cosmetic procedures, or even reconstructive dentistry—without the stress and tension that often comes with dental visits.

NuCalm helps you feel completely at ease, so you can focus on the benefits of your care instead of the fear.

Sedation Dentistry FAQs

Sedation dentistry helps make dental care comfortable, stress-free, and accessible for patients who feel anxious or overwhelmed. Whether your concerns are mild or severe, understanding how sedation works can help you feel confident taking the next step toward a healthier smile.

Yes. Sedation dentistry is very safe when administered by trained professionals using modern monitoring equipment. During your procedure, your heart rate, oxygen levels, and blood pressure are continuously monitored. Before treatment, we review your medical history to ensure the safest and most appropriate sedation option for you.

That depends on the type of sedation used. With oral sedation, nitrous oxide, or NuCalm®, you’ll be deeply relaxed but awake and responsive. IV sedation provides a deeper level of relaxation, and most patients remember little to nothing about the procedure, though you are not fully unconscious.

It depends on the sedation method. Patients who receive nitrous oxide can safely drive themselves home once the effects wear off. Oral conscious sedation and IV sedation require a responsible adult to drive you home and stay with you for a short period after your appointment.
