IV (intravenous) sedation is a form of conscious sedation treatment designed to ensure you remain aware of your surroundings and capable of following the instructions given by our skilled dentist. To ensure your safety and suitability for this method, you will have a one-on-one session with our dentist where your medical history, dental needs and other relevant factors will be discussed and evaluated.
During the procedure, medication is administered directly into your bloodstream, promoting rapid relaxation and a comfortable experience. Although IV sedation is extremely safe, our vigilant monitoring ensures that there are no complications throughout the treatment. Patients often feel as if they have dozed off during the procedure and retain no memory of or only hazy recollections of their visit.
To ensure your well-being, we require you to arrange for someone to accompany you and drive you home from our office. Additionally, we advise that you have a companion stay with you at home until the sedative’s effects have completely worn off.
For further information about the benefits and suitability of IV sedation or to book a consultation with our caring dentist, please do not hesitate to contact our office today. We are committed to providing you with a sedation dentistry experience that is not only effective but also comforting and stress-free.
