Usually, we like to suggest dental sedation for patients who appear to feel anxious about their upcoming visit or treatment. So, what happens when the main reason you’re experiencing anxiety is the fact that the idea of receiving IV sedation (or otherwise) is putting you on edge? Fortunately (and you may be surprised to learn this), this is more common than you might think and we are well equipped to help you feel much better about the use of sedation during your visit with us!
We Answer Your Questions
If you’re nervous about dental sedation, rest assured that you are by no means the first (nor will you be the last) patient who is a little or a lot anxious. Rather than wondering and fretting about the details, we much prefer you ask us about them. As a result, we can let you in on every single fact you’re interested in understanding. This often helps immeasurably when it comes to feeling calm about sedation!
We Offer Alternatives
Do you need a treatment for which IV dental sedation is usually suggested but something about this form of sedation is off limits to you (perhaps you have a phobia of needles)? If so, don’t assume you’re without options. Instead, speak with us. We may be able to offer other solutions.
You Are Monitored
If you’re receiving IV sedation, it’s important to remember that you’ll be receiving the same attention, administration of sedation, and more that you would receive in a hospital. You’ll be receiving sedation and your vitals will be watched by a trained anesthesiologist throughout your entire experience with us. Remember, as well, that as oral surgeons, we are trained in anesthesia.
