WHAT IS ORAL SEDATION?

Conscious sedation, also called oral sedation, is a widely used medication to help dental patients remain calm during procedures. This type of sedation is given in pill form by a dental practitioner before the procedure. Oral sedation makes the patient feel drowsy and relaxed, but still fully conscious and able to communicate. If the patient falls asleep, they can be quickly awakened. Following the procedure, many patients cannot recollect much of what occurred while under the effects of the medication.

Who Should Receive It?

Conscious sedation is ideal for patients undergoing extensive dental work or those who experience high levels of nervousness or anxiety about dental visits. It is recommended for patients who are undergoing lengthy procedures who may experience dental anxiety, gag reflexes, trouble controlling physical movements, or other special needs.

If you find yourself needing a substantial amount of dental work, feel anxious about dental visits, or simply want to streamline your treatment into fewer appointments, sedation dentistry can provide the relaxation and efficiency you need. At Benicia Family Dentistry, we’re here to ensure your dental experience is comfortable and convenient.
