Sedation dentistry helps patients feel calm, comfortable, and relaxed during dental procedures. For patients who experience dental anxiety or who need longer treatments, sedation can make the entire visit much easier and more pleasant.
Moderate Sedation – Oral Sedation
Oral sedation involves taking a prescribed pill before your appointment to create a deeper level of relaxation. You will remain awake and able to respond to verbal commands, but you will feel very calm and drowsy during treatment.
Experience: Deeper relaxation with little to no memory of the procedure.
Best For: Patients with moderate anxiety or those having longer dental procedures.
Note: A driver or escort is required after oral sedation.
