What You Need to Know About Oral Sedation Dentistry

Oral sedation dentistry is the process whereby you take sedative medication when you come to the dentist. This medication relaxes and calms you, and helps you comfortably sit through your dental treatment without dental anxiety or worry.

The medication we use will not make you fall asleep. Though you may be drowsy, you will be awake during your entire visit, and able to respond to requests. Please note that if you are orally sedated for your appointment, we require that you have a driver to safely get you to and from our office.
