Learn MoreOral conscious sedation involves taking a prescribed sedative pill prior to your dental appointment. This medication helps you enter a state of deep relaxation while remaining conscious and responsive. You'll be closely monitored by our trained professionals throughout your treatment to ensure your safety and comfort.
We understand that dental anxiety can be a significant barrier to receiving the oral care you need and deserve. That's why we offer oral conscious sedation, a safe and effective way to help you relax during your dental treatment. With this option, you can receive the care you need while feeling calm and comfortable throughout your visit.
Before your appointment, we'll prescribe a sedative pill for you to take at a specified time. Once the medication takes effect, you'll feel deeply relaxed and at ease. You'll remain awake and able to communicate with our team, but you may feel drowsy and have little memory of the treatment afterwards. Due to the effects of the sedative, you'll need a trusted friend or family member to drive you to and from your appointment.
After your treatment, you may feel groggy and disoriented for several hours. It's important to rest and avoid operating heavy machinery or making important decisions until the effects of the sedative have fully worn off. Our team will provide you with detailed post-care instructions and be available to answer any questions or concerns you may have.
