Who Is a Good Candidate for Sedation Dentistry?

Individuals who struggle with dental anxiety are often the most obvious candidates for sedation dentistry; however, there are other reasons a person might find this method of treatment helpful. If you experience any of the following, you are welcome to discuss your candidacy with our Doctor.

  • You have a fear of needles

  • You’re unable to sit still in the dentist’s chair due to a physical disability or ailment

  • You experienced dental trauma in the past

  • You have a sensitive or strong gag reflex

  • You are preparing to undergo multiple treatments in one appointment

A thorough discussion of your medical history will be completed during your visit, as certain factors must be considered before agreeing to provide sedation dentistry. Certain medications and health conditions can make sedation less effective.

Oral Conscious Sedation

Oral conscious sedation is delivered in pill form and requires that you take the medicine before you arrive for your appointment. As a result, you’ll need to have someone drive you to and from your visit. Designed to create a sense of complete relaxation, you’ll no longer express fear or concern about your procedure but instead, remain at ease and comfortable throughout your visit. It will take time for the sedation to wear off, so it’s best to return home and rest until you start to feel more like yourself.
