How Conscious Sedation Works

Our trained conscious sedation dentist provides sedative medication that slows the action of the central nervous system of the patient. Conscious sedation patients remain aware of their surroundings but are less responsive to the external stimuli in the environment like the sound of a drill or the smell of dental materials. Conscious sedation patients generally feel calmer and more relaxed after receiving the sedative. Sedation dentistry medication is generally mild or moderate with patients staying alert and responsive so they can answer questions.

Oral Sedation Dentistry

Patients can choose to take an oral sedative in pill or liquid form with a little water. Once the medication takes effect, and the patient is feeling comfortable and calm, the sedation dentist can complete the dental treatment. Typically, the pill is taken before you come to our office and the effects take a little while to wear off, so you will need to arrange transportation to and from your appointment.
