Conscious Sedation Available

Conscious sedation is available for dental patients who either have anxiety issues, are having major work done, or who simply can’t remain still for a lengthy dental procedure. It can be used for most age groups and offers a safe way to get through more complicated dental procedures.

What Is Conscious Sedation?

Conscious sedation is when a dental surgeon gives you an anesthetic that puts you into what is called a "twilight zone." You aren't unconscious but aren't fully aware of everything. It relaxes you to the point that you don't move and aren't anxious. Yet, you are awake enough to answer the surgeon's questions while they perform dental surgery if needed. It's a safer way to do dental surgery than general anesthesia, which makes people unconscious.

Why Get Conscious Sedation?

Conscious sedation is a good choice for those who are undergoing several teeth extractions, having impacted wisdom teeth removed, or lengthy surgical procedures. It's also an option for those with anxiety disorders, special needs patients, older people with Alzheimer's or Parkinson's where they may disrupt the procedure, or young people who can't sit still. Talk to us about whether conscious sedation is a good choice for you or your family member.

You Won't Feel Pain

Conscious sedation is used in addition to topical and local anesthetics that prevent you from feeling pain during a dental procedure. It is meant to calm you so you don’t move but can talk to the dentist if required. You will need someone to drive you home after your procedure and likely will need to take a nap when you get home.

Additional Cost

Conscious sedation is an additional cost. Insurance may pay for it, depending on the coverage and the procedure where it's required. Talk to us about whether you want conscious sedation for yourself or a family member and we'll provide transparent pricing on your cost of it.
