Common Questions About Sedation Options
Is dental sedation safe for everyone?
Dental sedation is generally safe for most patients when administered by our trained professionals. Before recommending any sedation option, we conduct a thorough review of your medical history and current medications. Certain health conditions or medications may influence which sedation method is most appropriate for your situation. Throughout your procedure, our team continuously monitors your vital signs to ensure your complete safety and comfort.
How long will the effects of sedation last?
The duration of sedation effects varies depending on which method you choose for your treatment. Laughing gas (nitrous oxide) wears off quickly, allowing you to drive yourself home and resume normal activities almost immediately after your appointment. Oral sedation typically lasts several hours, with some lingering grogginess that may continue through the remainder of your day. IV sedation and general anesthesia have longer-lasting effects, which is why we require someone to accompany you home after these deeper forms of sedation.
How should I prepare for an appointment with dental sedation?
Preparation guidelines vary based on the type of sedation you'll be receiving for your dental procedure. For laughing gas, no special preparation is required. You can eat normally and drive yourself to your appointment. For oral sedation, you'll need to take the prescribed medication before your visit and arrange for someone to drive you to and from our office. IV sedation and general anesthesia require more extensive preparation, including fasting for a certain period before your appointment, wearing comfortable clothing, and ensuring you have a responsible adult to accompany you home. Our team will provide detailed instructions specific to your sedation method well in advance of your scheduled treatment.
