Safe and Effective Sedation Options

What is Oral Sedation?

Oral dental sedation is used in dentistry to help patients relax and feel more comfortable during dental procedures such as root canals, tooth extractions, and dental implants. It involves the administration of sedative medication, typically in the form of a pill, to reduce anxiety and create a calming effect. 

By temporarily slowing down brain activity, the medications help you to feel more relaxed. It’s a mild to moderate sedation, so most people are still awake and can respond to commands but are in a relaxed state. They are aware of their surroundings but feel more at ease. It is recommended that if you have oral sedation you have someone drive you home. 

Is Oral Sedation Safe?

Your oral sedation dentist will determine whether oral sedation is safe and appropriate for you before recommending this treatment. 

A detailed discussion of any associated risks of oral sedation will be conducted with you after we review your medical history. In addition, our dentists will explain some of the possible short-term side effects you may experience.
