Sedation dentistry can put you at ease and virtually eliminates the pain associated with dental procedures. Intravenous sedation is one of several options available to significantly reduce your fears and discomfort.

Benefits of IV Sedation:

  • It's extremely effective for moderate to severe anxiety
  • It's quick-acting
  • The level of sedation can be adjusted during the procedure so that you remain comfortable at all times
  • In many cases, you can get ALL of your dental work done in one visit

During intravenous sedation (IV sedation), an anti-anxiety drug is administered into the bloodstream to achieve a state of "deep conscious sedation." Although you will not actually be asleep, you will enjoy a heightened state of relaxation -- and probably won't remember much about the procedure afterwards. Your appointment will be a dream and hours in the chair will feel like minutes.
