How Sedation Works and What to Expect
Sedation can reduce mild to moderate anxiety for patients who feel nervous or uneasy about dental visits. Depending on your needs and procedure, we provide:
- IV Sedation – For deeper relaxation during longer or more complex procedures.
- Oral Sedation (pills) – Helps patients feel calm and relaxed during treatment.
- Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas) – Provides gentle sedation while keeping you conscious and comfortable.
During your procedure, both our Dentist and a Registered Nurse will carefully monitor your sedation and vital signs from start to finish to ensure your comfort and safety.
We determine the best sedation approach by reviewing your medical history, evaluating the type and length of your procedure, and discussing your comfort preferences. Some patients even combine multiple procedures under one sedation visit to reduce appointments and recovery time.
Who Is Eligible for Dental Sedation?
Dental sedation can help a wide range of patients feel more relaxed and comfortable during dental care:
- Adults experiencing anxiety or nervousness about dental visits
- Patients with sensitive teeth or a strong gag reflex
- Those scheduled for longer procedures or multiple treatments in one visit
- Individuals who want a controlled, monitored approach to dental care
- Patients whose medical history and current medications are reviewed to ensure safety
Is Dental Sedation Safe?
Safety is our top priority. All sedation is administered by trained dental professionals, and IV sedation patients are monitored on-site by a registered nurse. We carefully review your medical history, current medications, and procedure details to ensure the sedation method is appropriate. Each patient receives personalized monitoring throughout treatment, giving you peace of mind while in our care.
Recovery After Sedation
After sedation, most patients feel relaxed and may need a short period of observation before leaving the clinic. Depending on the type of sedation used, you may need someone to drive you home. Our team provides clear instructions for post-treatment care, including eating, drinking, and activity recommendations. Most patients can resume normal activities within a few hours, though individual recovery times may vary.
