Comfortable and Safe Oral Procedures
IV Sedation
Provides a deep level of sedation that is closely monitored and easily adjustable. It’s ideal for longer or more complex procedures, as it allows patients to remain relaxed and largely unaware of the treatment, with little memory of the procedure afterward.
Oral Sedation
Oral sedation involves taking a prescribed sedative pill prior to your appointment. It’s a lighter form of sedation compared to IV, suitable for patients with mild to moderate anxiety about dental visits. It helps you feel drowsy and relaxed but still able to respond to verbal cues.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does sedation dentistry involve?
Sedation dentistry uses medication to help you relax during dental procedures. Depending on the extent of anxiety or the complexity of the treatment, various levels of sedation — from mild sedatives to deep sedation — can be administered. This helps you feel comfortable, pain-free, and calm throughout your dental procedure.
Is sedation safe for all dental treatments?
Sedation is a safe and effective option for most dental treatments, especially those that are invasive or lengthy. Our practice follows strict safety protocols, and all sedation is administered by trained professionals. Each patient undergoes a thorough health evaluation to determine the most appropriate and safe type of sedation.
How should I prepare for a procedure involving sedation?
Before undergoing sedation, you should avoid eating or drinking for several hours as instructed by our team. It’s also important to arrange transportation home post-procedure, as the sedative’s effects can impair your ability to drive. During your consultation, we’ll provide a detailed list of do’s and don’ts to ensure your safety and comfort.
What can I expect after undergoing sedation dentistry?
You may feel drowsy for a few hours as the sedation wears off. Minor side effects such as nausea or dry mouth can occur but typically resolve quickly. We recommend that you rest for the remainder of the day and follow specific post-care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
