This type of dental sedation treatment involves the use of intravenous medication to help patients relax during their procedure. It is typically administered through a small needle that is inserted into the patient’s vein. The medication is then slowly released into the bloodstream, where it travels to the brain and begins to work.
IV sedation dentistry is considered to be very safe, and serious side effects are rare. Most patients will remain awake and aware during their procedure but may feel drowsy or lightheaded. In some cases, patients may even fall asleep during their treatment.
IV sedation dentistry has become increasingly popular in recent years and can be used for a variety of different dental procedures, such as complex procedures like as root canals, dental crowns, wisdom tooth extractions or other types of oral surgery. It is often used for patients who experience anxiety or fear when visiting the dentist and can also be beneficial for those who have a sensitive gag reflex or who need to have a lengthy or complex procedure performed
If you are considering IV sedation dentistry for your upcoming dental procedure, it is important to consult with our endodontist to see if this sedation option is for you. We will be able to discuss the benefits and risks associated with this type of sedation in correlation to your restoration treatment, and help you make an informed decision for your smile and care.
