IV Sedation

Are you anxious about your upcoming dental procedure? IV sedation, also known as conscious sedation, can transform your experience. This advanced technique involves administering sedatives directly into your bloodstream, providing a deep state of relaxation while maintaining your ability to respond to verbal commands.

At Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates, we prioritize your comfort and well-being. Our experienced team provides a gentle and caring environment for your dental treatment. With IV sedation, you can relax and focus on your oral health without fear or stress.

Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates offers general anesthesia for our patients’ comfort and safety. General anesthesia is a safe and effective way to make sure you are comfortable during your dental procedure.

It is important to us that you feel relaxed and at ease during your treatment. Contact us today to learn more about our sedation dentistry services.

How IV Sedation Works

Our skilled professionals will carefully administer a sedative through an IV line, allowing the medication to quickly and effectively take effect. As the sedation takes hold, you’ll enter a calm and relaxed state, minimizing any discomfort or anxiety associated with the procedure. Throughout the process, our team closely monitors your vital signs to ensure your safety and well-being.

IV sedation offers a unique balance of comfort and control. Unlike general anesthesia, which induces a complete loss of consciousness, IV sedation keeps you conscious and able to communicate with your dental team. This allows for a more personalized and responsive treatment experience.

Compared to oral sedation, IV sedation offers faster onset and more predictable effects. It’s also an ideal choice for patients with severe dental anxiety or those undergoing complex procedures.

After your procedure, you will be closely monitored until the sedative has worn off. Depending on the type of sedative you have received, you may need someone to drive you home after your procedure. Your dentist will let you know if this is necessary, or if it is safe for you to drive yourself.
