IV (intravenous) sedation is a conscious sedation method that helps patients remain calm and relaxed during dental procedures. While you will remain aware of your surroundings and able to respond to instructions, IV sedation allows you to feel as though you are in a dreamlike state. Many patients experience little to no memory of their procedure, making it an excellent option for those with dental anxiety or those undergoing complex treatments.
Personalized Sedation For Your Needs
Before receiving IV sedation, you will meet with our dentists for a consultation to review your medical history and discuss your treatment plan. This ensures that IV sedation is safe and appropriate for you. The dosage of sedative medication is customized based on factors such as your level of anxiety, the length of your procedure and your overall health.
During your appointment, the sedation is administered directly into your bloodstream, allowing it to take effect quickly. Most patients begin to feel relaxed within minutes. Throughout the procedure, the dental team will closely monitor your vital signs to ensure your safety and comfort.
What to Expect with IV Sedation
Patients often feel deeply relaxed and may even drift in and out of sleep during their treatment. Although you will not be fully unconscious, you may not remember much of the procedure once it is complete. This makes IV sedation a great option for individuals who feel nervous about dental work or require extensive treatments in a single visit.
Since the effects of IV sedation take time to wear off, it is important to have a trusted friend or family member drive you home after your appointment. You may continue to feel drowsy for a few hours, so we recommend that you rest and avoid strenuous activities until the medication fully leaves your system. You may also want to have someone remain with you until the effects of the sedation wear off.
