Conscious Sedation

Conscious sedation is an excellent way to calm your nerves before your procedure. We’ll prescribe a sedative for you to take the night before and an hour before your appointment to help you relax even before you get to our office. To ensure your complete comfort, your provider will administer additional medication after your arrival if needed. You will remain conscious but dreamy and may even fall asleep

During treatment, you will feel very calm but remain conscious so that you can express your concerns and answer our questions. We will monitor your condition continuously throughout your procedure. Oral sedation is ideal for patients who:

  • Have difficulty getting numb
  • Have moderate dental anxiety
  • Suffer from a strong gag reflex
  • Have a lot of treatment to complete
  • Want to forget their dental appointment

We will need to take a medical history and rule out any drug interactions to determine if oral sedation is safe for you. You will also need to have a driver take you to and from your appointment for your safety.
