Questions? We can help
What is IV sedation?
Offered through intravenous injection, IV sedation reduces your level of consciousness during treatment. We can precisely control your level of sedation and make adjustments as needed to match the surgery and your needs.Are you awake during IV sedation dentistry?
IV sedation doesn’t put you completely asleep, but most patients don’t remember anything about the procedure.
Is IV sedation safe?
Yes, sedation dentistry is proven to be safe and effective. Studies show that surgery becomes safer by ensuring you stay calm and reducing blood pressure during the procedure.
Will I be loopy after IV sedation?
Your level of grogginess afterward will require a friend or family member to drive you home, but the effects of sedation will wear off in just a few hours.
How does IV sedation differ from general anesthesia?
IV sedation induces a state of deep relaxation, allowing you to be semi-conscious. General anesthesia, however, puts you into a deep sleep. IV sedation is generally considered safer and has a quicker recovery time compared to general anesthesia.Expertise Matters
