Benefits of Sedation/Sleep Dentistry
Sedation dentistry can offer a variety of benefits for patients. If you have dental anxiety or fear, sedation can help you relax and get the care you need. Sedation is also a great option for patients who have trouble getting numb, have sensitive teeth, or need extensive dental work. With sedation dentistry, you can rest assured that you'll be relaxed and comfortable throughout your entire dental appointment.
Oral Conscious Sedation
Oral conscious sedation is a pill that you take before your dental appointment. This type of sedation will make you feel drowsy and relaxed, but you will still be awake and able to respond to questions from our team. Oral conscious sedation is a great option for patients who need more extensive dental work done.
IV Sedation
IV sedation in dentistry, also known as intravenous sedation, is a form of conscious sedation used to help patients relax and feel more comfortable during dental procedures. It involves the administration of sedative drugs through an intravenous (IV) line, which allows the medication to take effect quickly and allows the dentist to control the level of sedation throughout the procedure.
During IV sedation, the patient remains conscious and responsive, but they are in a deeply relaxed state. This type of sedation is often recommended for patients who experience dental anxiety or phobia, have a strong gag reflex, require extensive or complex dental treatments, or have difficulty sitting still for extended periods.
What to Expect
When you come in, our team will help you to choose the right type of sedation for your needs. We will also go over any instructions with you before your appointment, so that you know what to expect. During your appointment, we will closely monitor your vital signs and make sure that you are comfortable throughout the entire process.
Dr. Vo is well versed in complex restorative dental procedures. Patients can opt for sedation and relax through their entire appointment during these procedures, such as dental implants, oral surgery, smile makeovers, and less invasive treatments like dental cleanings.
Am I a Candidate for Sedation Dentistry?
If you have dental anxiety or fear, exploring the options of sedation can greatly benefit you. During your new patient exam, we'll go through your medical history and determine if there is anything that could prevent you from safely receiving nitrous oxide or oral conscious sedation.
