WHAT IS SEDATION DENTISTRY?
Sedation dentistry is a technique used by dentists to help patients feel more relaxed and at ease during dental procedures. It involves the use of medication that helps to reduce anxiety and fear associated with visiting the dentist. This type of dentistry can also be referred to as sleep dentistry, although patients are typically awake during the procedure.
What to Expect at Your SEDATION DENTISTRY Appointment
Your dental experience with sedation dentistry begins with a consultation. Dr. Faris or Dr. Alhamdi will review your medical history, discuss your anxiety levels, and create a personalized treatment plan that's right for you.
During the procedure, you might feel completely relaxed, drowsy, or even fall asleep. Regardless, you'll be monitored by our team to ensure your safety. Post-procedure, you may feel a little groggy, so it's important to arrange a ride home.
SEDATION Options at Santee Dentistry and Implants
At Santee Dentistry and Implants, we offer a range of on-demand sedation options:
Nitrous Oxide
Commonly referred to as "laughing gas," nitrous oxide is administered through a mask placed over your nose. This mild sedative induces relaxation, making you feel at ease during dental procedures. Its effects dissipate rapidly once the mask is removed, allowing you to resume normal activities without lingering drowsiness.
Oral Sedation
Oral sedation involves taking a prescribed pill approximately an hour before the dental procedure. This method induces a state of drowsiness while keeping you conscious. Patients may drift off to sleep in some instances but can be easily roused if needed, ensuring a comfortable and controlled sedation experience.
IV Sedation
IV sedation delivers sedative medication intravenously, enabling swift onset and precise control of sedation levels. By adjusting the dosage as necessary during the procedure, dentists can ensure optimal comfort and relaxation for the patient throughout the treatment.
