Frequently asked questions about Sedation Dentistry

Is sedation dentistry safe?

Yes, when administered by trained professionals with proper monitoring. Your dentist reviews your medical history to choose the safest option.

What types of sedation are available?

Nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral sedation pills, and IV sedation. The right choice depends on your anxiety level and the procedure.

Will I be unconscious during treatment?

Most sedation keeps you relaxed but awake and responsive. Deeper IV sedation may leave you with little memory of the procedure.
