Oral Conscious Sedation
For patients that experience high anxiety when visiting the dentist, we offer Oral Conscious Sedation, in lieu of standard anesthetic procedures. While typical anesthetic methods are always available, some patients prefer sedation to take the edge off the dental experience, making a more comfortable time for both the patient and the dentist. Sometimes referred to as “comfortable” or “relaxation” dentistry, the terms describe the feelings most patients experience during their oral sedation appointments. The purpose of oral sedation is to allow a dentist to work more effectively by helping a patient become as comfortable as possible through the use of sedative medications administered orally and sublingually. The term “sleep dentistry” is inappropriate. Patients are never meant to sleep through their appointments and should always be able to verbally and physically respond to cues from the doctor or team.
