Types of Sedation Dentistry we offer
Oral Sedation
A sedative medication (usually a prescription pill) taken an hour before your appointment to help you feel drowsy and calm. While you remain awake, you may feel groggy and some patients don’t recall much of the procedure afterward. This option is great for moderate anxiety and longer procedures. Since the effects take time to wear off, you’ll need someone to drive you home.
