IV and Oral Sedation Specialized for 50+ Adults
At the Center for Adult Dentistry we understand that dental and medical procedures may cause anxiety. We offer several sedation methods to ensure your comfort during treatment. These include Intravenous Sedation (IV Sedation) and Oral Sedation. Our professionals are highly-trained to provide you with a relaxing and safe experience.
IV Sedation
IV sedation is also known as intravenous sedation. It involves injecting sedatives directly into the bloodstream using a tiny needle. This method allows for precise control of the level and duration of sedation. It is best used in complex or long procedures. You can remain awake and aware, but will feel relaxed. It is possible to have no or little memory of your procedure. Patients with high levels of anxiety and those who require extensive dental work often choose this option.
Oral Sedation
Oral Sedation allows you to take prescribed medication orally before your procedure. This method is best suited for patients who have mild to moderate anxiety, or those seeking less invasive treatment. You can remain awake, but relaxed and comfortable during the procedure with oral sedation. This is a great option for patients who don't want to be given sedatives via IV.
